This is a link to my Pinterest board about Digital Diversity. This board focuses on how technology has changed the attitudes of people over time. It questions what is good technological advancement; and what advances have really held individuals back.
Digital Diversity Board
1. Old and new windmills
This picture shows a true juxstaposition between old and new technology that are both doing a good thing. The old windmill was used to produce energy, and so are the new windmills in the background. People usually question technological advances but this is a case in which technology has helped. This is a new way to still help the environment and produce your own energy.
2. I love my computer picture
This picture shows the addiciton that people now a days have to their technology and computer. Instead of making friends face to face, this picture shows that people only have friends through social media. This is a topic that is in question, this picture exaggerates the idea that people only talk to people over the internet but it is a fair argument to make.
3. Einsteins Prediction
This pin shows that Einstein's prediction of how people will act in the future has come true. His prediction is that technology will surpass human interaction and the pictures above his prediction are pictures of this happening. The use of cell phones has overtaken personal interaction and his prediction is true. The fact that people spend more time on their phones than speaking in person may lead to less and less personal interaction and connectivity.
