We use Martin Heidegger and Manuel Castells´ theories to study how the concepts of time and our awareness of time are affected by the development of digital technologies. We try to discuss the relations between time and technology. Firstly, we give a historical review on the development of the concepts of time. The history indicates that our consciousness of time is changing in digital age with the development of technology. It is our destiny to meet technology; we are in the technology of "enframing". Both danger and power saving are coming together with modern technology, it´s impossible to avoid. Even if we are not meeting "digital technology", there will be "other" kinds of technologies waiting for us. It seems that digital technology is an inevitable product; we cannot refuse it, so we have to do a self-examination so that been lost in the "timeless time"
