In our generation people seem to be all into their electronic devices. Whether it s for work or just for entertainment. Most of the time people use their electronics for entertainment, for example, facebook, instagram, YouTube, texting, or even just to search things on Google or yahoo. Electronic devices have become a big importance in our life. Not many people can go without a day using their phone to go on social devices. Facebook has become a thing where you can talk to friend, find friends you have not seen in a while, or even just to meet new people. A lot of people spend their time talking trying to get to meet new people. Instagram has been another big thing that a lot of people like to use to post pictures about a great time they had or just a random picture. Youtube has been huge for a while now, people go on it to watch music videos or just random videos that they have up. Texting would be the number one reason why people are all into their phones. No matter where they are they are on their phone messaging a friend or a love one. Texting has been a distraction for students especially during a lecture. Electronics are also just used to research things or just being able to check on their email. Electronics has become a big distraction and not a lot of people know when it is appropriate to be using.

Electronic Addiction

I just finished reading the article "The Electronic Addiction" by Andrew Freeman in my English 1 one class, it suprised me how people get so addicted to video games.In our generton people seem to be more addited to video games, cell phones, and television. In the article "The Electonic Addiction" Andrew Freeman discusses about how people get into video games. For example, he talked about a 28 year old man that lived in Korea who died because he went on playing with video games for two straight days. Electronics are everywhere, many of us can not live with out it.
