This is promising, are there any downsides of this new technology?
Most of these new technologies are allowing people to disassociate themselves with others. Yes, it is convenience to not go to the bank, but we are not socially interacting face to face with people. Also, many technologies are making people lazy..they don't have to leave their house for days at a time because they can do everything right from their computer. just some thoughts..
