After several weeks of
searching, I have decided to address the topic of blogs, and more specifically
look at how blogs have an impact on politics through their journalistic capabilities.
Just wanted to get some feedback about this topic. I had been thinking about how the military technology has had an effect on America, and after today's discussion in class I figured that I could almost argue the exact opposite of Taylor. Instead of saying that technology has caused conflicts, I would say that the advancement in weapons technology has done more to keep America out of major conflicts than anything else. I would obviously need to narrow this down, but does this idea or topic sound interesting to anyone?
Leo Marx, in the article "Does Improved Technology
Mean Progress?", discusses the misleading notion that many Americans have
adopted overtime: technological
improvements are a primary basis for and an accurate gauge of progress.
