Quick, what’s the one technology you can’t live without? If you answered “Broadband,” then you’re in agreement with 28 percent of respondents in Zogby’s latest survey covering a range of topics, including must-have technologies.
Email came in second with 18 percent of the votes, while 3 percent of respondents chose Facebook as the one technology they’ can’t live without. Not surprisingly, 18-24 year olds view things a bit differently, with 15 percent saying they can’t live without Facebook.
The survey also asked respondents what they think will happen in the next decade, and here’s what they said:
- Regular use of stem cells and cloning techniques to create human organs for transplant (43 percent)
- Computer chips implanted in people to monitor their health (40 percent)
- Robots capable of performing manual labor jobs (40 percent)
- Incorporation of virtual reality into home entertainment (36 percent)
Zogby pinged 1,950 adults online from December 8-10, 2010.
