Ellen DeGeneres-Technology

I decided to write my blog on the Ellen DeGeneres article called "This is how we Live." I did this mainly because I am a fan of Ellen. She is a very controversial figure that many people don't like, but no matter your opinion you have to admire her independent nature. She worked hard her entire life and deserves everything she has. She talks about how we have gotten lazy because of technology and I agree. She brings up the microwave and even Go-gurt which is terrific examples of her point. She then rants about the cell phone for about two pages and complains about all its little problems like rings, call waiting, and bad recption. However, she appreciates the improvements in technology, especially the cell phone that we have made as a whole over the years. I think this shows the kind of person Ellen is and the way she feels about technology. She may try to be funny all the time, but she is a person who gets it. She realizes America has become lazy and a complete consumer economy where everyone walks around with something on their ear. But, she appreciates technological advances and is impressed by it, and I couldn't agree more.
