Does Technology Change culture, or does culture change technology ? Freewrite

I think technology and culture work in a flow chart type way.
It goes technology then culture then technology then culture again and so on. For instance, our culture is now face paced so we need technology to keep up with our way of thinking and our way of life. We have texts, emails and instant messages that can be sent in an instant rather than mail or a telegram. On other terms, technology can change culture. For example, we now have playstations and xboxes where kids play and in terms become more technologically savvy rather than playing board games or playing outside like their mothers and fathers used too. Everyday I see younger and younger kids that have cellphones, iPods, iPads. Something I never had when I was their age. So I think it works both ways.
