I definitely think what drives technology companies is the people because in a technology company it's always about what are you going to do next.

We're seeing how the videos translate to the live shows and how the technology is really reaching kids.

I love the modern technology now.

The most important thing about technology is that it can seamlessly work its way into your routine and your life.

The most I ever spent on technology is building a studio - I built one at home in Los Angeles. I can't tell you how much exactly but the whole process is very expensive.

It is impossible to work in information technology without also engaging in social engineering.

I feel drawn to experiment with ways that technology can interact with notions of intimacy because so much of technology is done in a way that's very cold and has such an opposite effect.

If we allow our self-congratulatory adoration of technology to distract us from our own contact with each other then somehow the original agenda has been lost.

Technologists provide tools that can improve people's lives. But I want to be clear that I don't think technology by itself improves people's lives since often I'm criticized for being too pro-technology. Unless there's commensurate ethical and moral improvements to go along with it it's for naught.

People try to treat technology as an object and it can't be. It can only be a channel.

What the public needs to understand is that these new technologies especially in recombinant DNA technology allow scientists to bypass biological boundaries altogether.

There was a time when nails were high-tech. There was a time when people had to be told how to use a telephone. Technology is just a tool. People use tools to improve their lives.

We live in a media world simultaneously obsessed with technology and personality.

World War II had a very important impact on the development of technology as a whole.

Technology has a shadow side. It accounts for real progress in medicine but has also hurt it in many ways making it more impersonal expensive and dangerous. The false belief that a safety net of sophisticated drugs and machines stretches below us permitting risky or lazy lifestyle choices has undermined our spirit of self-reliance.

The number one benefit of information technology is that it empowers people to do what they want to do. It lets people be creative. It lets people be productive. It lets people learn things they didn't think they could learn before and so in a sense it is all about potential.

If you think technology can solve your security problems then you don't understand the problems and you don't understand the technology.

The computer offers another kind of creativity. You cannot ignore the creativity that computer technology can bring. But you need to be able to move between those two different worlds.

I understood the importance in principle of public key cryptography but it's all moved much faster than I expected. I did not expect it to be a mainstay of advanced communications technology.

I was one of the first authors to have an active website. I'm totally obsessed with technology. I'm always looking for ways to connect with my readers. I answer all my fan mail.

Technology has allowed us to have more drought-resistant crops. The spotty nature of drought the spotty nature of rains can sometimes result in better yields than anticipated.

For the last 10 years I've felt increasing pressure to stop shooting film and start shooting video but I've never understood why. It's cheaper to work on film it's far better looking it's the technology that's been known and understood for a hundred years and it's extremely reliable.

But in each case as a filmmaker who's been given sizable budgets with which to work I feel a responsibility to the audience to be shooting with the absolute highest quality technology that I can and make the film in a way that I want.

For the blue-collar worker the driving force behind change was factory automation using programmable machine tools. For the office worker it's office automation using computer technology: enterprise-resource-planning systems groupware intranets extranets expert systems the Web and e-commerce.
