Technology Advances Technology has always existed and immediately began evolving the day humans were created to use it. Technology is simply the usage and knowledge of tools. This can lead to certain techniques, systems or even methods of organization. Technology extends our abilities to change the world. As technology evolves into the 21st century, it encompasses the daily lives of most people, particularly the college realm to the business world.

In order to examine how technology affects the world today, it is important to understand how technology has improved through the years. Examining the definition, technology obviously allows humans to cut, shape, or put together materials. Therefore, technology can always be improved by using newer tools invented from newer technology. It expands the ability to reach farther with ones hands, voices, and senses (Science Net Links, 2010). Phones are the best examples of how technology evolves. The new smartphones would not be possible to make twenty years ago. Many factors
