New Technologies: for and against

What do you think about new technologies (the Internet, the computer, the mobile phone, etc.)? What are their advantages and disadvantages? Have they really improved communication?

Technology

What three items would you put into a time capsule to be remembered as the most important inventions of our time? Write what they are used for and why you think they are important. Don't forget to use linking words, a variety of adjectives and Conditionals :)

The following words might be useful for you:

device - устройство

gadget – a small device

tool – средство

convenient – удобный в использовании

handy = convenient

suitable – подходящий

essential – важнейший, необходимый

You can use the ideas from the following sites:

Pink Floyd "Wish you were here"

Enjoy the music and the lyrics of Pink Floyd's song 
"Wish you were here"

So, so you think you can tell 

Heaven from Hell, 

Blue skies from pain. 

Can you tell a green field 

From a cold steel rail? 

A smile from a veil? 

Do you think you can tell? 

And did they get you to trade 

Your heros for ghosts? 

Hot ashes for trees? 

Hot air for a cool breeze? 

Cold comfort for change? 

And did you exchange 

A walk on part in the war 

For a lead role in a cage? 

How I wish, how I wish you were here. 

We're just two lost souls 

Swimming in a fish bowl, 

Year after year, 

Running over the same old ground. 

What have we found? 

The same old fears. 

Wish you were here.
