Technology is at the center of our lives. We consult instant messaging apps or meet to telecommute in front of a computer on a daily basis. The pandemic has accelerated a technological transformation that is here to stay and has changed the world in which we live. Today we no longer conceive our day to day life without WhatsApp, without Spotify, without Instagram or without a diary app on our mobile.
This new reality raises multiple questions. How do these changes affect us on a personal level? What repercussions does it have on our work? In the family field, is it going to affect in any way? What about our friends?
From Tekneolavanguardia.com, the technology channel of La Vanguardia, answers to these questions are given daily and the keys are offered to understand and use technology with a single objective: to live better.
News about the technology sector is becoming more relevant every day in the news coverage of the major media. His influence and impact is undeniable. The main newspapers in the world, from The New York Times to the Financial Times, count among the main and most outstanding sections of their headers with a specific section for technology news. Every day some information related to the technology sector marks the news.
There are many reasons that explain this phenomenon and only one that sums it up: technology affects us all. The examples are many and varied. The world seemed to sink last October when WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram suddenly stopped working. Mark Zuckerberg's metaverse has crept into our lives, although for many it is still indecipherable. The purchase of Twitter by Elon Musk – and the debate that he has sparked on freedom of expression – has shown the immense capacity for influence that the little bird's social network (and all the others) has.
Precisely, the use of social networks by adolescents has shown new socially relevant phenomena and that are a good example of the world in which we live. On the one hand, self-diagnosis through, for example, TikTok, where a growing number of young people believe they suffer from depression or Tourette syndrome, both in the United States and in Spain. On the other, the Meta reports published by The Wall Street Journal that would show that the old Facebook knew that the optimizations of its platforms could lead an entire generation to global frustration. Technology is everywhere, it is our life.
Tekneo wants to explain how to get the most out of technology. We show the best tricks so that the devices that we usually handle give more of themselves and we use them better. We report on the main market developments and analyze them so that readers have all the keys to the main products. We delve into the social transformation associated with new technologies and see what implications it has on our lives.
On the channel, we also talk about cybersecurity, how to protect ourselves against the new ways that crime finds to commit crimes. And we do not forget the entrepreneurs, where the companies that innovate have their space with the desire to accompany them along the way. In short, Tekneo wants to help us move forward without leaving anyone behind.
