The Domestication Theory is a study of the relationship between technology and society, as well as how technologies are fully adapted into households. Users adapt to the technologies that integrate into their lives; their responses to these technologies transforms the next generation of electronics.
Arguably the most successful example of technology is the television. It has gone from being a luxury item to a centerpiece of the modern living room. In fact, multiple rooms in a household will often feature a television. A recent evolving of the television is the adaptation into smart TVs, which include apps and other internet-based features. These apps connect users to streaming music and television shows while using the internet and social media sites.
In a sense, the television is transforming into a wide-screen smart phone that has been tamed into an important object within the modern American household.
