The technology of phones has largely increased within the last decade. Back then cell phones were only used to make phone calls; in this day and time, cell phones are used in many other ways. For example, now cell phones are used for texting, internet, a GPS device, and many other technological advanced things. This has a huge impact on me because I text often. Texting is just a quicker way to get in contact with people and is a way where you can talk to more than one person at a time. This has advantages and disadvantages. The negative side is it can sometimes be hard to have a conversation face to face with people because we get so used to just texting it all. A positive side is that you can talk to more people at once and it can be quicker to get int ouch with someone.
This affects me on a proffesional level because if I am in a meeting and someone needs to get in contact with me I may not be able to call them right away. If this is the case, I can just send them a quick text letting them know what is going on. I can also text people reminding them of certaing things they have to get done or give them a specific time for something. It is much more convenient than calling everyone all the time. Quicker and faster makes my life go smoother so texting is a very good item for me.
