Computer Roles in Our Life

by: Rizqi Fadillah

In this global era, technology has improved faster than any other knowledge in this world. One of those technology is computer which is has influence our live. In 2007, 72 % of homes in the world had own computer. From that fact, we can know that computer was a part of our live that can be separated. Computer is not only helping us for write but also for any other work. However, computer has disadvantages if we work in front of it in a long time such as eyes sick or mutation in our cell. In other hand, although computer has some disadvantages, I still use it because not only the knowledge and the practical it gives, but also the thing it can do.

First of all, computer might have some disadvantages. The disadvantages usually come out when the computer’s worker work with computer in long time. Computer’s disadvantages such as eyes sick, mutation, and forget of time because focusing in work or game are come after four until five hours work in front of computer. Eyes sick come to us because of the emission of radiation from computer. That emission makes our eyes red and acute for several minute but it is still okay if we put some eye drop into our eyes. The mutation in our cell actually took several years to change our body into something such as minus eyes or else. For forget of the time usually come for the computer maniac or gamer who play for a whole day. This disadvantage can make bad attitude for the future and that attitude only make disaster.

From other side, computer is more practical than other machine. We can know it if we compare computer with other machine. Computer is faster than typewriter in order to typing something. If we use computer, we mustn’t retyped when we have something wrong or false. So, computer is more efficient than typewriter. Typewriter can’t save writing that we had done but computer can do that. That make computer more practical than other machine.

Not only that but also computer gives a lot of information for us. Computer can give news from past and present. With it we can know what happen in another country in this time or 50000 years ago at any places in this world. Computer also contains knowledge about various subjects such as economic, politic, religion or many others. That happens when computer connected with internet which it contains any subject in this world from news, knowledge, movies, etc. but in order to connect with internet computer might have something such as wireless or telephone connection in that computer.

Finally, computer is a machine that can do a lot of thing. Computer with it is connection in internet make us can communicate with other in long range. For example is e-mail and chatting. Computer is can save our data in its memory such as music, picture, video, writing, and other. At least, computer can refresh our mind from daily activities. With computer we can play a game or an online game that connected with internet. So, we can enjoy and forget daily activities for some minute or hour.

In short, computer is amazing machine that human have made. And computer is a machine that practical than other machine, gives a lot of information from around the world, and can do a lot of thing. So, computer is the best technology this day. although the best technology still had some disadvantages, I still prefer to use it than other technology for this day.
