In the text, the author shows how we are proud to imagine that people from the past or the future are different from us because of the technology that existed and will exist in each era. The author shows that this is a defect in our personality, by imagining that technology shapes people in some way, in addition to shaping the activities that we perform with these technologies.
The author states that people from the past were like us, but with less technology. To reinforce this idea, she uses communication devices (cell phone, phone, smartphone, skipe, among others) to show that the most archaic models had the same purpose (to allow people to communicate) as the most modern devices that we know today. Which shows that in the past, people had the same communication needs as us, they just didn't do it as quickly and efficiently as we do today. However, we have a hard time imagining this, and we think that the population of that time is different from us.
This is a rather personal question, and I can't answer for you, but I can give you my opinion.
When Macbeth says that line, he is referring to the meaninglessness of life. He is saying that life isn't really worth living because it is just a fleeting moment in time, and will eventually end, no matter what you do about it. He tried hard to fight for his ambition and become a king, and he did, but he died nevertheless, thus reaffirming his belief that life is 'signifying nothing' in the end.
Personally, I disagree with his opinions. Yes, life is going to end and we aren't going to live forever, however, we have to make do with what we were given. We aren't supposed just to lie down and wait to die - we should live our life to the fullest and make the most of it while we still can. As the famous aphorism goes, Carpe diem (Seize the day)!
