The rise of the iPad and the affect it has...

            The iPad, one of the most popular tools of equipment created by apple has impacted the lives of many individuals. Before we get into more detail of how the iPad has influence and affected our lives and this world we live in, lets go into a little bit of detail of what exactly is an iPad.




            The iPad is a line of tablet computers designed, developed and marketed by Apple Inc. It is a tool of equipment that contains audio-visual media, periodicals, movies, games, web surfing, etc. Its operating system is the same as the iPod touch and the iPhone – two more equipment created by Apple – that have impacted us in an incredible way. Like the iPod touch and the iPhone, the iPad is also controlled by a multi-touch display. Ever since the iPad came out – March 2010 – Apple had worked on improving the performance and the fixing the defects that occur in the previous generation; this year the second generation has arrived.

This new generation of the iPad has had a great impact on individuals, for example this video.



This video was taken on the release date of the iPad 2 in NYC. It is amazing to see how individuals would stand in line for hours in order to be one of the first to get the newest and most popular piece of equipment. Additionally the power and ability to persuade individuals into taking certain decisions is demonstrated by the iPad 2.

Before I close this post I would like to leave you with a question, now that you have seen how the release of some new technological device moves people into taking such actions and decisions, have you ever encounter such persuasion in your life? Have you ever been force by the desire of waiting something where you go out of your way to get it as soon as possible? When thinking about these questions you would be able to see how certain things, especially technology, has changed us as individuals and this world we live in.
