The 10 Businesses the Smartphone Has Destroyed

1. Are you or people you know less likely to buy any of the products listed as a result of the development of smart phones? 

• Yes because I would rather have a really nice, awesome smart phone. New developments would make me want one even more.

2. In general, do you think it is an advantage or a disadvantage to have so many of your technological functions in a single device?

• It is an advantage. It causes you to do more things without wasting time having to go somewhere such as paying a bill or anything like that. It is just more convenient.

3. How have smart phones improved our lives?

• In ways, they make life easier. Although, they sometimes lead people to be too soaked into their phone they do improve many of the things we do.

4. What do you think has been the most important invention of your lifetime? How do your answers compare with the most important inventions of your parents’, grandparents or great-grandparents’ lifetimes?

• The most important invention of my life has probably been the cell phone and how it has evolved throughout the years. It has made communication much more easier and faster. My grandparents would say otherwise and talk about the television or any old school stuff like a kind of transportation. Things have changed a lot from then to now.

5. “There are plenty of studies which insist that smart phones will begin to replace the PC as the common vehicle for accessing the Internet.” Do you agree? If so, does this mean PCs are on their way out? Would you ever stop using them?

• I do see that happening however I would not want that to happen. If they want to make a smart phone like a PC that would be nice; but, I would still want the PC because it is just easier, bigger and better for me. So hopefully PCs aren't on their way out, unless they come up with a really cool holographic computer or some other great invention. 

6. Do you have any need for TVs, radios, and other devices, rather than just using your computer for everything? Would you ever want to use your phone as a TV or radio? What are the barriers to either of these things happening? 

• Honestly, I really do not because now you can do a lot on the computer their is no reason for anything else. I would be okay with using my phone as a radio but not as a TV. The screen is too small. The barriers lie within the size of the smart phones and the people that are prone to change.
