Shift Happens, Indeed.

This short film has really opened my eyes to the world that we live in today. I can only imagine what is to come. Although I do not have any children, I know I would be very upset to find out they were not being properly prepared for the future ahead of them. I am sure that one day it will be virtually impossible to live without being able to operate a computer or some specific piece of electronic gadget that is invented. It is a somewhat scary thought, however, thinking of one piece of machinery having more knowledge than the entire human population. Will people become even more mindless as they rely on that computer, or whatever it is, to do all their thinking for them? Yet, there is truly no way better to stay in contact with people all over this planet. I found the statistics that were shown about myspace to be very interesting (especially since I am so fond of it). It is impossible for me to imagine the actual number of people that are a part of the huge network. Also, it surprised me to read about the number of jobs a person will go through by the age 38 because I am only 21 and I know I have had at least 10 jobs already. I just really hope that I am fully prepared for what is ahead.
