Technology is a technology or
method used to achieve a goal, such as the production or scientific
investigation of a product or service. Technology mainly refers to the
knowledge that facilitates production, but technical products can also be said
to be the technologies that can promote the production of products or services
or help achieve goals. The most well-known of modern technologies is mobile
phones. Mobile phones have changed social customs and today people rely heavily
on them. Social networks have the advantage of being able to stay in touch with
people who live far away, but there are critics that offer a history of unpleasant
behavior that can cause problems in their lives. Gender inequality also exists
in these social networks. Video games have one advantage: improved visual
attention, but on the contrary, there are many disadvantages.

As technology developed, the
areas to be studied in sociology expanded. Examples are the technology, the
Internet, and the virtual world discussed above. In the future, if technology
develops further, the research field of sociology related to this will
increase.

The invention of cell phones
has changed a lot in our lives. So let's talk about how social networks are
affecting our lives.
