Well, this is my second post; a text about mobile phones. Our teacher asked us, to do a text about this invention, which changed the world. I want to write first of all about how it changed the society.
The first mobile phone was created in 1973. Before the mobile phones, the computers.
It has been a technological revolution since then.
The first phone is from 1876, at that time, no one had this new technology at home, it was impossible to call a friend, the only way to get communicated with another town was by mail, and it took at least a week to get the answer. We can't compare this with now, when if I want to send a message to my cousin in Brazil, it only takes two minutes with my cellphone: I write the message, write the number and then press the "send" button .
If we think about the efficiency of the cell phones, it is great: I can get communicated with anyone, anywhere, anytime.
We know that the human being is a social creature, we have to live with other human beings. We have to get involved in relationships and learn how to live with others...
But we have to ask ourselves... Is or is not the cellphone separating us from the world? I mean, I talk with a lot of friends every single day, using my cell phone, that I don't remmember the last time I really saw them. This situation makes me wonder if mobile phones are something positive or not. This small box, which contains a lot of keys, is isolating us from the REAL relationships.
In some way this is my opinion... But also I think that this invention is very u
seful. I just think that we shouldn't depend on it. I accept that I can't go out without my cell phone but I also meet my fiends and my family, I talk with them personally and not only using my mobile phone...
Today in Argentina there are 12 million mobile phones working, in Brazil there are more than 30 million, only in the USA there are 200 million. In the world there are ONLY (hehe) 1237 million cell phones working at this moment...
This is all for now :) see you soon =)
