The Effects of an Invention or Innovation in Modern Life

Nowadays, hi-tech appliances and merchandize, such as computers, digital cameras, and webcams and so on, have created a wonderful convenient condition to (in) our modern life. Of course, advanced technology and novel inventions are keeping (delete) going forward to what we can’t imagine and changing our life styles gradually.The most important inventions in 21 century are computers and Internet which are like bombs blowing up the way, we lived originally (? do you mean "our original life?). Before the invention of the computers and the Internet, people always have (past tense) to write a real confirmed letter and send (past tense)to their business partners, but , now, what we have to do since the computer and the Internet have been created is just writing an E-mail attached with a copy. Moreover, we are able to chat by the computer and the Internet now by using certain software like “Skype". Such a useful and magic invention is able to make you easily communicate with your friends and relatives who are thousand miles away from you without any cost. Therefore, while this model (mode)of the communication have been popular, our life style, now, is absolutely different from what we used to be. Another invention which changed the way we get information is “google”, which is “entrance website(porter) responsible for searching some information by the keyword you require. In a rapidly growing world, people always eager to finish tasks and reach goals quickly. The more information you can get in short time the more you can succeed. Therefore, the google is created. Recently, almost everyone has the experience that we search some information by googling because the google offers a strong searching engine to find the information you want. Before that, we used to only learn by books but once there were no books and no time, we were unable to gain knowledge. However, now people have been starting to getting (get) useful information by "google". For instance, while I tend (do you mean "intend") to know a story about pyramid, I just type “pyramid” in the requiring (inquiry) box on the google and then millions of sites worldwide about pyramid just pop up immediately. By contrast, for the same purpose, I probably need to spend all day to find a book about pyramid. Hence, the google has changed the way of getting information in our modern life. As I said above (in the above), I believe that in the future there are more and more incredible inventions which out of your imagination will be created and spread out. Certainly, those gadgets will affect our life styles.
