Progress? Enough?

We have touched upon the concept of progress in class. I think that progress can be a positive or a negative thing. It can be a positive because this is how we got to the world that we are in today. People wanted to advance the way we live and to make things a little easier in a sense. We as a people have many more opportunities now then people had back before the new technologies.

The negative could be seen as when is enough enough? Have some things gone to far? These are a few questions that are asked frequently. When new versions of the phone come out, their isn't a huge different between the two but yet people go crazy to get the newest and greatest. I could see the difference between a computer and an iPad maybe because there are several differences between the two, yet they are an advancement of each other. But when will the new technology be enough?

I do to think it will ever be enough because inventors and people always want to be improving and we are constantly becoming more available to new technologies and new ideas on how to use it and what to create.
