Smart phones are
now an essential tool in our society, In Ireland in the past few years the
number of smart phone users has also increased dramatically, iphone,
blackberry, samsung galaxy, just few brands of smart phones in our society. They
become integrated part of a person’s daily life and they are with us where ever
we go. On the bus or train, reading newspapers, is becoming a thing of the
past, catching up on the latest business news you increasingly see people with
their smart phones, downloading and picking up important emails before
they even get into the office. Lunch break in a park or waiting in a queue, people
can pay their bills without physically going to the bank or post office, even
in the gym when people are exercising they can check up on the baby sitter through
live video feed.
Before smart
phones, in the “old days” about ten years ago, in order to achieve multi functions
such as today’s smart phone has you will need a computer, a camera, an mp3 or
CD player, a game console and even more. Can you image to carry them everyday
instead of a mobile phone? These days’ technologies have made our life so much
simple and easier but also complicated more than ever the same time. As “the”
technologies in our world, digital technologies are changing the way we conduct
our private, social and business lives, and transforming our experience of
media out of all recognition. Smart phones as part of digital technologies, it
has made huge impact on our society.
Technology has
always had an impact on society. First came the PCs that changed our life as we
knew it. Then came along the mobile phones that transformed the way we
communicated with each other. And finally came the smart phones that enabled us
to do most of the things both the inventions did by just using one device.
Nowadays there is an increased trend that more and more people have started to
use smart phones. Their use has affected the society and culture in many ways,
and lots those effects are in a good way. As time passes there will be new
technologies to make them even “smarter”, the future is here today.
