MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS
The article provides some interesting thoughts of how we put communications in relation to ourselves in multiple meanings in different periods of time. How amazing telegraph was born and we had communication through space then how communication again changed with more complex devices which could be carried around, pretty much physically attached to human body. Then, more than enough, human beings have more "real interaction" with technologies and the culture of media and transport was changing recently. Two examples of email and mobile phone are given to show us how space and our identity work together in terms of mobile communications. And yet, whether we are being affected by mobile technologies negatively or positively, our daily communications are obviously changed a lot. Ipod, Iphone then Ipad are being carrying around everywhere. People stick their eyes on the screen all the time even when they are talking to somebody in person or checking out girls! So the point is, these motionless devices are getting more attachment to human's bodies than ever. They are being loved and worshiped in a superficial way. Is it right or am i being too realistic?
How to maintain privacy in public speaking when using mobile phone and other mobile internet devices??? It is hard to answer this question unless we dont mobile those technologies anymore! Make them stay in one place, make them stable in your private room or home. Then technology is not technology any longer because they are made to be convenient for us, they are made to perfect our life? CONFUSING!
