We mentioned earlier in the year that Read Schuchardt would be speaking as part of Christ Community Church’s TrendingNow Series. Here is the video from his presentation. In it, Dr. Schuchardt analyzes the so-called “better quality of life” provided by technology in the post-digital-explosion age. Are we really improving quality of life through technology? He proposes that we don’t just look at whether Technology with a capital “T”, or any given technology, is good or bad, but that we should try to do a cost-benefit analysis. What are the upsides, and what are the downsides? What do we gain and what do we lose?
