Since the beginning of time, people have been entertaining themselves. When they are not eating, working, or simply breathing, they find ways to keep themselves busy and happy. Whether it was the cavemen making fire or the founding fathers in the 1700s doing whatever they did for fun, people are always trying to find ways to be entertained. As technology has developed, so has the entertainment industry. Newspapers, TV, and radio were around when my parents were growing up. Conversing with others about the latest news or radio stories was definitely a source of entertainment.
Now a days, it is very different. People don’t converse as much. They are e-mailing or texting on their cell phones and computers. People can’t spark conversations on the RIPTA with the person next to them because they have earbuds in their ears with their iPod blasting. It doesn’t matter if you are home or out, internet access is always available on your phone or iPad. The iPad is a traveling computer. Technology is something we can’t get away from. People are entertained by technology in today’s world, not by nature or baking.
