There exists a list of the
12 most annoying pieces of technology. I agree with most of them on there. Technology for the sake of technology can be pretty ridiculous. Using technology just so that we can gets annoying when there are other ways to accomplish something that are far less annoying. The only thing that I don't agree with on the list has to be the "touchless bathrooms." Granted there are times when you can't get the sink to work, but there is usually more then one sink right next to each other so you simply need to move over. It cuts back on water consumption and germ spreading. Another of the
technologies that i don't really have a problem with is the voice recognition technology. I understand that there are those that get frustrated with it when they can't get the software to understand what they are saying. I personally don't have too much of a problem with it because I am a voice actor and have become accustomed to over enunciating my words. If you are having trouble with the voice recognition software then I suggest you speak slowly and ridiculously in order for the software to understand what you are saying.
One bit of technology that I find incredibly annoying is the email notification feature that comes with any website that you signed up for. This includes Facebook. I DO NOT need an email sent to me every time one of my friends updates their status or someone makes a slight change to an event I'm attending. I have my email linked directly to my phone which is incredibly convenient and helpful especially with school emails and such. I can't stand it though when I get 15 emails in 10 minutes from Facebook because one of my friends is bored and it ends up blowing up my phone.
Another piece of technology I find incredibly annoying are the bluetooth ear pieces. When people go into a store and are shopping around, you will see them and it seems like they are talking to themselves. Often times I will walk by someone and they are looking in my direction while they are talking and then there will be that awkward moment when you're not sure if they are speaking to you or not. How lazy do you have to be to walk around a store and shop that you can't take the time to hold a phone to your ear for a few minutes. These wireless devices should only be used in a car where the situation requires you to use both of your hands. If you are too busy that you have to take a phone call during every moment of your life, then you need to take a step back and realize there is more to life then that.
