Cell Phones

Cell phones have been a great innovation from regular landlines. We are no longer bound by wires and stuck waiting in our homes or offices for important phone calls. Cell phones have freed us from enclosed walls. We are now able roam the streets freely without worries. Wow, talk about inspiring.

Cell phones have in a way changed socialization. Instead of relying more on face to face interaction outside of homes or offices, everyone seems much more dependent on using our cellular devices. Giving someone a call is much easier, and in some cases less intimidating than meeting in person.

Many cell phones makers understood the importance of email and have incorporated it in the phones. This has broadened our horizons. They allow us to talk to one another overseas without the high costs of travel or long distance charges. E-mail is also of big importance to some business people or students, allowing them to see information/data themselves and being able to access it whenever they want, instead of someone simply reading it out to them.

Smart phones are the new must haves in the digital world. I Phone for example allows users to download numerous applications, some being very useful and others just for entertainment. Blackberry has been known to be used by business people because it allows them to easily access their emails on a constant basis. It also has the BBM (Blackberry Messenger) which is an instant chat. All or most other smartphones have internet access if the consumer has a data plan. This allows one to do research and do some serious multitasking. Some even have a GPS system, which allows one to travel with confidence.

In general, no matter what cell phone is owned, one cant deny the convenience. Even the simplest of phones can be used as somewhat of a security purpose. It would allow us to make a call in cases of emergency while out. Keeping that in mind, it has made many people more at ease.



This video is quite interesting because it shows the cell phone as it evolved.



The IPhone has changed the cell phone industry, and is integrating everything else that people seem to find important. This shows just how convenient the product is.



Seinfeld sure is a simple man. He points out some of the annoying social issues can come about from using such entertaining devices. People seem to become too attached or dependent on these devices which could cause numerous problems.
