Reflection # 11
In class on Tuesday,we explored Google earth. I had forgotten to bring my laptop that day so I used my smartphone. I was amazed that I could use my phone to look at Google earth. The images were exactly the same as I would have seen on my laptop. Technology is very advanced and I was shocked how much I could find from Google earth with my phone. The pictures of buildings, cars, land, etc was very clear and persist. However, I do think it is kind of scary how there is such technology that people can watch the whole earth at every moment and see exactly what is going on. In a way, this technology may be too advanced for our own good?

I agree with you, Alyssa. Technology is progressing at a crazily fast rate! I thought the ability to see the world on Google Earth was amazing! I was able to tour the streets of Barcelona, Spain, which was so cool. However, the thought of people being able to see me all the time, any time, is somewhat creepy. In the future, will we not have any privacy, I wonder?
