Currently, we live in a generation
so focused on and filled with technology. Hence the reason why this decade is
known as “the age of technology.” One of the most important pieces of
technology we use in our everyday society is our cellphones. Everywhere you
look in our everyday lives people are so consumed in their phones, they play
such an important role in our lives.
Cell phones were first created in
the 1970’s, but this was just a plain phone in which you could call someone on
the go. This eventually over time became more advanced and in 1992, the first
smart phone was created. But, it was almost nothing like it is today. Still,
you could only call on the phone and not much else. The first IPhone came out
in 2007, changing the technology for smartphones completely. This was a design
created by Steve Jobs, one of the most influential people that this decade has
ever seen for technology. Unfortunately, Steve Jobs passed away in 2011, but
his work was continued by his company. Today, Iphones are everywhere we look.
This is a device that is so important across the world and has influenced other
types of technology. The Iphone makes it so we have a computer in our pocket.
We have information for everything and anything right in our pocket. We get to
make phone calls, receive and send texts, get weather, news, and access to the
internet. It is absolutely groundbreaking technology for our time.
It is hard to guess what comes next
for technology. Everything is advancing so fast in our society due to us being
so focused on advancing technology. What I see coming next is holograms from
phones. This would be something in which you could have a conversation in
person without being with the person. This would be something similar to
facetime except a full body and more realistic experience. It is hard to say
how this technology will be created. But, I definitely see it coming down the
line and most likely sooner rather than later. This would be also very
groundbreaking in our modern day society.
