Information technology is a boon of the modern era. It encompasses anything and everything. It has helped people in making things more efficient, convenient and achievable. Information technology touched every aspect of the lives of the people. People started depending more on it and the need for manual labour started decreasing. Information technology is so intricately linked with the lives of the people that in it’s absence, the world would descend into chaos and tension.

In the past, people had minimal needs and mostly did manual labour. People were satisfied as they bore fruits of their own labour. With the coming up of technology, people became lazy, and wanted things to happen as quickly as possible. Information technology gave solution to that problem. People started inculcating information technology into every aspects of their lives.

Information technology exists in all sectors of our society be it education, health, industries etc. It has single-handedly made life easier for the people on earth. In schools information technology has helped in making classrooms more efficient and student-friendly. Information technology is used by people of all ages, starting from small kids to elderly people.

Life without information technology would be unimaginable today. More than half of the things of the world today are run with the help of information technology. The industrial sectors, the health sectors, the electronic sector, the educational sector, the finance sector, all use the help of information technology. IT has indeed made our lives better and far more convenient. But however, man’s need for information technology has started becoming overwhelming. Information technology, which was created by man, has started taming it’s own master. Information technology has virtually becoming the master of it’s won creator. Though information technology has made a lot of positive developments in the life of man, yet it has an equally negative side to it.

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
