3-D Printing

            For the first article they talked about using the 3-D printer for printing organs and human tissue. As I am not against cell reproduction in labs and things I think that the 3-d printer would be too risky as of right now. It needs to be tested and researched more before we actually start to produce these organs. A for the second article on CNN i think that 3-D printing can be useful in society. It can pretty much duplicate or print anything and could be used where certain materials aren’t available.

            If I had a 3-d printer I wouldn’t know if I would use it all that much. Of course I want things right away but I feel like it would be more expensive to use the printer rather than buying it from a store or some website. It would really be a hassle to me to use and buy all the materials I needed to run it. I feel like the 3-d printer will become a modern technology but only for companies or corporations. I feel loke for the common house hold it will be too expensive and unnecessary for a normal person to use.

Blog entry 4

Pro: Technology empowers people by giving them the information needed to live in this complex world; for example, information about their health and welfare lets people challenge those in power.

   For researching this topic i used go duck go because it does not track your searches. I also used the settings of my search to change the date at which the articles were published so i could see the most current resources available.
