Modern technology is creating a single world culture #1 (permalink) Tue Apr 20, 2010 10:00 am   Modern technology is creating a single world culture
 

This topic was not fruitful, I am not satisfied but I tried.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Modern technology is creating a single world culture. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.

In my relatively short life, I have witnessed many technological steps such as internet, cellular phones, satellites, online video games etc. New generations of humankind are born into a new digital world and conceive as there have always been these technologies. If the technological improvements continue to develop and spread so fast, I surely believe that one day the world unification will not be just a utopia.

First of all; there are no boundaries in our modern world, thanks to communication technologies. People all over the world have the opportunity to meet, talk, and share anything they like. Youtube is a one prevailing example of this communication media. On youtube and similar web sites people are sharing, watching, and laughing at same things. This creates a future in which posterity of nations will one day be feeling in the same way.

Another great technological gift is obviously the huge information base of the Internet. Are you curious about a festival on the other side of the world and you do not have the chance to go, do not worry! Just sit in front of your PC and enjoy the historical background, pictures or even videos of it. Make some friends from those lands on the net and get ready for next year’s festival. Internet offers many ways to discover different cultures, and the possibilities are limited with your imagination. Facebook, for instance, is another boon of the internet, where one can make friends from all over the world.

Considering all these, the inventions and improvements in the modern technology are offering and shaping a new world. I claim that, in this new world, the cultural differences and gap between nations will be diminished. Maybe one day the entire world would be speaking the same language. Who knows?

New generations of humankind are born into a new digital world(,) and SIMPLY ACCEPT THAT there have always been these technologies. If the technological improvements continue to develop and spread so fast, I surely believe that one day the world unification will not be just a utopia.

Utube is a one prevailing example of this communication media. On Utube and similar web sites people are sharing, watching, and laughing at THE VERY same things. This creates a future in which posterity of nations will one day be feeling in the same way.

Very interesting work Nouma. Please note that Internet is a Proper Noun and is always spelt with a capital letter. In the majority of cases it is preceded by "the".
