Dear tatal-crackdown,
If I were you I would base the essay on the fact that right now, no one person can do everything we have in normal life. Because of this, every person focuses on one role to support one portion of the human population. And due to information, one person's life's work can be obtained by someone in a week. With information, intelligence can easily be doubled. In fact, writing was created to spread information.

I hope this helps.

Thank you Mathwiz,I have found your thinking to be very useful.. this unique point will really make my essay a unique one... but how about the negative usage of this?

Is this what you mean?

Without obtaining information from others, communication ceases to exist. And without communication you cannot learn any quicker than man in Prehistoric times. So, technically without information we would be caveman (although that is a false stereotype). Going back to writing, when writing was invented the intelligence of man accelerated much further.

Please reply.

Yea you are right... but it should take into account that this rapid travelling information has turned our lives very fast.We are facing a massive bombardment of information... is human being able to face this bombardment?. memory assisting devices like digital diaries are lowering the tendency to remember.. we are shifting our memory burden to these digital gadgets... how about this...

Yes, that is a good idea to look at, so let's put together a paragraph layout.

Introduction: State that in this time (the age of information) technology is growing rapidly and is accelerating quickly, and we need multiple ideas to keep up. You should also have a thesis connecting all of the paragraphs.

1st body: Use my first bit of information and state the invention of jobs and the role of humans bit-wise for an entire population

2nd body: explain the invention of writing and teaching to quickly spread a vast amount of information.

3rd body:You might put this in another paragraph but state the flipside of the gift of communication.

4th body:Explain the relation of technology and information and definetley point ouyt the signifigance of the internet.

Conclusion:Explain what you were getting to, the bombardment of technology and memory devices. You may even want to explain the sci-fi technology taking over the Earth.

I know this is a rough draft and I would advise you to criticize me. And pleease soon send a draft of your essay and the due date so I can work with you at a good pace.
