Hi everyone,

In my point of view, using computers have both positives & negatives.

In the positive side by using computers we need not go far to do our works. By sitting in the home we can do all our works by online. For eg, banking, food ordering, shopping, bookings, etc. Computers are not only for the purpose of doing works they are also using for studies through learning websites. Computers are also using for online exams which is very helpful for the students who can't go far for every time and it makes the work easy by correcting the answers through online and results are announced at the same time. These are also used for improving technology which makes our work so easily. For entertaining purpose also we are depending on this computers only. We are also using this for video calls for far from the distance. We are making contact with everyone through emails, WhatsApp, Facebook etc. In olden days we don't have technology and phones, people used to post the letters instead of calling. Now it is so easy to contact the others within a sec. Day by day there is an increase of technology is decreasing our work burden. In olden days, teachers used to dictate the notes but now they are sending emails. So, on the positive side, the usage of computers is very helpful for the human to survive.

In the negative side, by using computer childrens spend time playing. They are losing their childhood & they are not participating in ers the lifespan of humans are decreasing day by day. Children are spending their time their outdoor games. By increasing technology, humans are being far from their relations with their families. These are making unemployment. Humans are not using their entire skills and knowledge as they are depending on the computers. Computers are letting down humans knowledge and all are depending on computers for every small work.

Finally, my conclusion is using computers are good for improving our technology but every time depending on computers are letting down our knowledge and skills.

Thank you.

We are living in electronic era. One way and another we have to depend on it. Before the electronic era the things were very difficult to handle in offices because we had to record everything on paper. But now a days we can easily store a data in a computer.

By using computers we can not only secure our data but also find and change the data in just one click. In various industries these are used to handle the processes very easily and more important effectively. There are various software's in companies in which we have to just put the data to get the whole solution which is every difficult and very time consuming also.

But as everything has some good points and bad points and computer is not an exception. It has been noted that dependence on computers led to unemployment. It is true that one computer is equivalent to ten persons. In earlier days lot of office workers were required to do paper work and as a accountant but nowadays one person can do things easily. We also become lazy as we know things are easy to do.

Conclusion: So dependence on computer is good thing. In today's electronic world without this it is very difficult to grow. As I said dependence on it led to unemployment, but overall effect on growth is much adverse than that.

Computer is one of the most important parts of our life. Everywhere computer is necessary from online form filling to online booking. Computer has made our life easy in doing things so fastly and safely we can do our works in less time than without it. But totally depends on computer is also not good because for all needs you use computer but not your own mind it was a bad habit. It decreases your creativity skills and memory power, without computer you are just an empty mind man. So increase your memory power and decrease the dependence on computer for small works.

In our generation, students use it as a medium for getting information, for making projects report. Everywhere peoples are using computer for storing their useful data or information but on computer there was another thing you have to know before storing the data that your information is stored safely because in recent times hacking is a major problem. Hackers can get this information and use it for bad things. So first improve your data safety before storing information on computer.

Computer is a special gift given to us by CHARLES BABBAGE so don't use it for unnecessary.

So in last, I would say decrease your full dependence on computer and improve your memory power.

Hello, everyone. I want to ask a question. In olden days, there are no vehicles to transport. People used to walk. It takes a lot of time to reach their destiny. Now-a-days even children are using transport. But they are forgetting to walk. Similarly, long back people used to write letters to send their messages. It also takes a lot of time to reach or probably convey their messages. Today world it takes seconds to send our messages. But it created distances in the relation among people. So there is a point to analyze and find it clearly that dependency is not bad. But over dependency causes to ill effects. In our topic, that dependency on the computer is good or bad. First, let us analyze the pros and cons of the computer. Computer is very useful in learning new things, reducing our mental stress, etc. And also very much helpful in spoiling our minds by unnecessary things. Now let us try to understand the difference between dependency and over dependency. For instance, we can use the computer in doing complex mathematical calculations is the dependency. But using the computer for simple calculations such as 23+45 is over dependency. So at last I want to say that rule the computer don't be ruled by the computer.

Hello friends,

In my point of view it can be both good or bad as everything has pros and cons it also does. Computer provides us so many information and it can store data and various other things can be done. So our most of the work can be done by using computers. If you know how to use it properly you can do your most of the work from your home with your computer.

But it also have cons like people get addicted to it and they are wasting there complete time on it. It is affecting every age group, let us first consider children. Nowadays children are playing computer games so they are not able to do physical activities and they are so busy in playing these games so that they are not even playing indoor and outdoor games. Same is the case with the adults they are also always busy with their computers and forgetting to do any exercises and activities so ultimately it is increasing laziness and dullness.

If the computer are used for a certain time means if the dependence is limited for important things then it will be very useful. So finally I want to say that computers are very important invention for our generation so not let us waste it. Use it properly!.

Dependence on computer is not at all bad because it is through these type of devices that our India has become such a wonderful nation technically and in all aspects. We can take a small example that is even if you want a small bit of information of anything you can immediately have an access to the google and you get acquainted with the complete detail of what you want. Even the small kids nowadays have a complete knowledge of everything because a device like computer has made the learning process wonderful to be more precise fantabulous.

Computers have made our life easy in the very old days even if you wanted to send letters to anyone it was a very much hilarious task but now all you need is to drop a mail to whomsoever you want to do it, and the same moment that person receives it or else earlier it used to take days and months and so on. Nowadays the most important factor of our life is TIME almost all run short of time all are just running to achieve their goals and in such a tedious part of life all we need is such type of devices that save our time and make our life easy. So I conclude that dependence on computer is good.

Hello friends, It is a very interesting topic. First of all, I discussed on the word dependence, what means this word give. If you will do your task and you will be dependent on it and it will not perform according to you now you will irritate and you will always scare that how more its work. Fully dependent on anything is a bad habit and it will secretly make weakness in a person and the person does not know about it and this weakness realises when the results not in our favour.

And now we come on greatest invention of this world. The Computer it is a solution for every problem. Everyone knows "man makes computer and not computer makes the man", but whenever we compete man vs computer I think most probably computer wins. It is faster than us and easy to excess. Future of the computer world is very bright, no doubt it includes many advantages but in this world everything is not perfect everything contains equal merits and demerits and in few case computer will not give results as we want and a dependent person always give up but a person who knows how to make results they will performing whether it works or not.

Hi guys,

I am Akash Nigam. As, I think Depending on computers have its own pro and cons. Using its as a utility thrive the men kind to a different level for attaining knowledge but totally dependency always lead to the abstraction or to lead to the specialized spot where we only use luxury given by computer automation. Don't know about how we are getting commodities. Like many children in a foreign country don't know where they are getting their foods they know there is a place called supermarket from which provide them food.

Nowadays computer is getting user-friendly which is a good thing but attaining something without any struggle is bad too. This is only the bad thing that computers can do " takeover many things through automation". Some words but taking jobs of many people.

At the good side of it help every person to have time to keep the focus on its things that they like. If we take this automation to everyday life. Then people no need to worry about daily life struggle be open minded to implement new things. So I think yes to depend on computers for good things.
