How Does Technology Affect Culture?

Technology changes communication methods, it makes people live in two worlds, it allows for instant delivery of entertainment and news and it allows for easy political discourse. In some cases, technology makes for a more reclusive culture because people can simply explore the world from their computer instead of actually going out into it.

Technology is allowing more people to work from home. Coworkers now communicate via email and coworkers from all over the world are now able to easily communicate with each other. Technology also allows for people to quickly access information and learn. Studies also suggest it could reinforce a greater sense of community.
