Cell Phones Blog #1

     One technology that has changed the world is cellular phones, cell phones are a necessity in my life.  It helps to keep my family close together, even though we are hundreds of miles apart.  It allows us to communicate with one another, at any time and any place.  My parents live in a small remote community on the Navajo reservation, the nearest land line telephone is 30 miles away.  It use to  be a chore just to make a simple phone call, an hour round trip, $20.00 in gas and most of important of all TIME.  Now with this new technology, they are able to make phone calls from their house. 
     Cell phones in the 1990's were huge, it was like carrying a suitcase, large cell phone  Today, we have phones that are so much smaller and a whole lot lighter than what people use to have.  Cell phones changed the world, so many people, like 6.8 billion people in the world have a cell phone.  Who would have thought this big phone would eventually change the world for the better.  Cell phones allow us to keep track of our kids, business clients, family, friends, and most of all it gives us a sense of security.  When we travel we know we can call road side assistant if we have mechanically problems, we are able to call emergency personnel if there is an accident.  Cell phones make our lives so much easier. 
     I love looking at old cell phone commericals, it just goes to show us how much time has changed. Cell phones is a technology that has changed the way we communicate with other people.  It makes it more accessible and most of all convenient.
