1. Computer technology – A Definition by Terry Bradshaw of Editions TV
Technology is the modification or transformation of a particular action, machine for the
intention of its betterment. This uncommon vocabulary in the past has emerged to be the order
of the day, even young kids know about technology; this is because it has come to be part of
our lives.
Computer technology which is the revolution of computer from the first computer generation
made up of vacuum tubes which at that time made work easier for the users of that generation.
But had numerous disadvantages like high power usage, difficult to operate but most of all it
was too huge in size generating a lot of heat causing malfunction.
With time it gave rise to second generation where the vacuum tubes were replaced by the
transistors, it was easier to use and faster. Since technology changes in a high speed the third
generation came to introduce integrated circuits which in a great way increased computer
speed. This greatly influenced researcher and inventors who tirelessly looked for ways of
reducing the size of the computer to a small and portable size. The fourth generation came to
rise this way influenced by the invention of the microprocessor which was a number of many
integrated circuits being built in a single chip which was made of silicon. The size of the
computer reduced in a massive way leading to what which filled a whole room of about 10 fit
squire house to fit in ones hand.
The fifth generation aspires to change the look of computers in the near future which will be
more interesting although some of the features have been realized like voice recognition and
speech generation.
Nevertheless, a computer has come to be one of the most crucial tools to have in life.
Computers are used in communication, trade and industry also in personal and professional
venues.

2. Computer technology has led to a great bang on society and promoted many developments in
the technical part of life. It has made the world to change in the way of operation, like changing
from analogue to digital in transmissions of data and information example in
telecommunication sectors. It has also led to changes in the world of business by the
introduction of e-commerce, agriculture by improving research in crop and animal production ,
education by promoting online learning and research, health mention but a few. It has
impacted people’s lives in a way that huge amount of data corrected, processed, presented and
transferred in a high speed. This makes people who used to take many days to accomplish work
nowadays using some minutes to accomplish the same work.
Computer technology has made the world to be a global village whereby there is
communication between people from different continents communicating face to face by use
of webcams and programs such as Skype.
Since introduction of technology there has been a challenge in computer usage since most of
the application need skills and it is mandatory for one to have this technical knowledge and
experience in computer. This knowledge has become devastating because there are changes in
technology in a fortnight.
