cyborg- a person whose physiological functioning is aided by or dependent upon a mechanical or electronic device.This is what would be the definition if one would look it up in a dictionary of course one could argue because their are many different definitions. i say am not dependent i know when to back away from the technology
In my own opinion the word cyborg means some one that depends on technology every single day of their entire life.I for one don't depend on it when i was younger i remember not owning a cell phone,metro card,or an ipod.But in today world is much more evolved we have all sorts of gadgets,electronics.Now i do own a cell phone i use it to keep in touch with the people i don't get to see everyday and have long conversations at a time but when i don't want the world to bother me i could leave my cell phone off for days at a time.Now the metro card we all know back in the day we all carried nothing but tokens in our pockets just a $1.25 could get you just about any were.Fast forward to 2010 and now we have a light weight plastic card we carry with use that has the word Metro Card printed rite on it.now a $4.50 is round trip any were in New York City.So i guess some of us do use this everyday i do depend on it to get me every were.The ipod is very reliable i for one love my music i have over 4000 songs stored in it.before this good invention every one carried a whole bunch of cd's and a cd player this of course was not the way.i do enjoy this device but i know when to put in down.
Very interesting--you are "cyborgian" but do not like it; I think many people would agree with you that more technology does not necessarily make for a better life...I, for instance, still like reading paper books rather than digital books
