For and against the use of computers

Some people believe that the increase of the dependency on computers is a bad thing. However many people disagree with this opinion.

They think there are many advantages to computers. Computers make things easier for people. You can learn because there are excellent programs about photography or architecture, for example. Your work can be presented more professionally and you can find information quickly. Furthermore, you can compare prices and buy whatever you want. It’s easier and cheaper. What’s more, you can talk with people all over the world and send photographs without cost, therefore it’s cheaper than speaking on the telephone.

On the other hand, people can get used to talking online and forget how to interact face to face. In addition to this, on chat sites you don’t see the person, so you can only read the messages but not the other person’s body language. Computers can be very addictive and it’s bad for your eyes and your posture. Moreover, people become lazy about checking information and some people post incorrect things. Another thing against computers is that things like pornography are available for anybody to see and it’s very difficult to control these sites.

In my opinion, the use of computers has more advantages than things against but it’s important that we must avoid the abuse. We must know the balance and build the facilities and be careful.
