(Marks, Debate Technology) “We don't rely too much on technology: we keep up with the news, we email people to connect and work.” (Marks, Debate Technology) “The invention of the computer was effective and efficient. We don't rely too much on computers; we simply use them for our help. Computer technology is a great way to help students learn better and be more productive. Computers are certainly a necessary part of our daily lives." (Trademarks, Debate Technology).

Technology is a good way to keep your business running smoothly, it helps you connect with friends and family around the world, and it also provides an easier way to find things.
