In the past few years, we have reinvented the world of technology, and it has completely rearranged our worlds. From relying on smartphones to find the nearest store to using online features in order to interact with family and friends, our lives are tightly intertwined with the technology around us. If there’s a show on TV, we can DVR it and watch it whenever we choose. If we have a craving for tacos at 3:00 a.m., we just tap our phones and order up some tasty snacks. We no longer have to wait on a street corner for a cab because we can uber home. Who knows what kinds of wonderfully exciting opportunities await us in the future?
