Technologies that will change the world

What do we understand when we hear the word “technology”? We can say that technology refers to those things that make our lives easier, maybe we don’t realize how much as a society we depend of technology, but wether we want or not we can’t live without it.
Technology is a concept that copes whith the usage and knowledge of tools and crafts, and that is our point. How harmful can it be for humans at the moment of the application of all this knowledge? What kind of society are we becoming? Maybe a society that’s selling its soul to the devil in return for power, and what are the costs? Our freedom, our health, our own life or, more dramatically, our existence in this planet. This sounds like a science-fiction movie, but we must be aware of the future we are creating. In the past, nobody would have believed that the moon landing was possible or that one day the modern cloning techniques would have been successfully performed on several species. If now we can see things that years ago were unthinkable, How far will technology advance in 20 or 30 years? What can we expect? And how will it affect our lives?
Your opinion about this subject is important.

People today have a very hard lifestyle and they only are worried for living in the present. I think this is the reason because of the researchers are looking for new technologies that make easy the lifestyle of every person.

The technologies were/are/will be an important issue in the human being life's.
And the future that we or ours children will see/live. The wires will be soon disappeared and wireless technologies will be everywhere.
Robots will be soon (as they are starting to be in Japan) the "perfect baby sitter". And also new robots are been created to satisfy sexual desires.
And obviously to go to work and replace human beings
