According to Wikipedia Computer technology has brought about many changes in the way we live in this present society, which has affected and reflected not only on an individual itself, but also organizations and society. With the advancing growth in technology since the early computers made in 1946 we have seen a quantum leap in changes made that has affected us both in our present lives and future to come. In the earlier years, when computer technology was still infancy, people relied on telegraph, adding machines, rolodexes, telephone, and ledgers for calculations, communications and record keeping. Although these forms in their own way were effective, some aspect, for example post and telegraph proved to be sometimes unreliable with time delays in receiving information, or in the case of the telephone, where people were not able to see expressions or reactions of the individual they are talking to or some cases were misled to pass on information to individuals pretending to be persons they wish to talk to.
