Mobile Technology

Use Of Technology Paper

         
Mobile Technology has changed the world completely.  Back 50 years ago cell phones were almost non-existent.  Now they are everywhere.  Weather it is a cheap flip phone, a Blackberry, or an Android phone, most people have one.  These phones allow people to change their status on a social networking site, use their email, create spreadsheets, and communicate with all of their friends and colleagues.
Mobile technology has changed tremendously from 10 years ago.  Some people say that mobile technology is ruining society little by little, but I don’t agree with that.  I think mobile technology is making a change for the better.  More people are easily communicating through their phones and technology.  Mobile technology has although changed society in negative ways.  This has caused society to become more materialistic. 
People have become much more materialistic in the ways they communicate and use technology.  In todays society, it is less about the features and benefits of the product, but it is more about what the latest phone is.  People don’t always use their phones to their fullest potential.  People in todays society seem to neglect the true meaning of their lives by fulfilling the lives that Hollywood sets out for them.  This has been true in the clothes they were to the Mobile Technology they see, if they see that Paris Hilton got a new Blackberry, it suddenly becomes the latest phone that everyone wants. 
A lot has also changed in the sense that the government is able to listen in on all of your telephone calls made.  They can also see all of your documents.  This has taken away privacy for many people.
