Hands-free calling is a big deal because there have been fatal accidents due to the distraction of a hand-held device. <br /><br />Video-confrencing is also an incredible technology that will benefit many business oriented individuals because of the ease and convenience it offers. Not only is this a piece of technology that works for business individuals but those who are connecting long distances with family or friends. Saving money and time with travelling is greatly appreciated to those who don't have a lot of either. <br /><br />Social media is a mind-boggling tool that many take advantage of at this point in time but I believe that in the future the attitude will change because it will be such a bigger aspect of our everyday lives.Kylie Nichollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04262940481417359241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3935597265453768714.post-5742332037863588752012-04-13T15:44:37.630-07:002012-04-13T15:44:37.630-07:00first of all i agree with what you said about how ...first of all i agree with what you said about how social media changes rapidly and unpredictably; social media even differing this year compared to last. secondly, i like what you said about how social media will become less hand held. i think social media being less hand held is definitely something that society wants and is also something that researchers are interested in pursuing. overall i definitely agree with your view for the future of social media.Brittany Caplanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05947590660227848415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3935597265453768714.post-61312359004842808442012-04-10T09:32:49.026-07:002012-04-10T09:32:49.026-07:00I hadn't mentioned anything of what you had bu...I hadn't mentioned anything of what you had but I agree with you. On my phone I thought it was handy when I found out it could be activated by just me speaking, but when I actually tried to do it, it was just annoying and I never cared to think about using it again. As far as a recorder that could then transform it into a written copy, that could definately be useful for a wide variety of people.Gilly33https://www.blogger.com/profile/04912616980483585841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3935597265453768714.post-32593746964392161752012-04-06T14:39:04.996-07:002012-04-06T14:39:04.996-07:00I agree that there will be less handheld devices n...I agree that there will be less handheld devices needed. In fact, we've already reached that point with smart phones. Any of the new modern smart phones are able to do anything a netbook or notebook is able to do and more.<br /><br />I disagree however on the video conferencing being an emerging technology. The reason why I say this is the fact that we have phones, with phone numbers, with voice calling. Yet the majority of the younger generation will text 9/10 if they have a choice. Voice communication is more advanced technology but texting is what they're doing. I personally believe that this is due to the interactive nature of typing a text message on the device itself.<br /><br />Social Media's future is a mytery to us all, I agree. But one thing is for sure. We are a forever advancing species so we can rest assured that we will have new technologies soon enough in the future.Kombowzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884780085865705253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3935597265453768714.post-12544390681967364412012-04-04T13:38:20.813-07:002012-04-04T13:38:20.813-07:00I definitely agree with you--voice commands need m...I definitely agree with you--voice commands need much improvement! Are they ever correct? Video conferencing using Skype will definitely be a very popular thing in the future, even more so than now. This is great for businesses contacting people in other parts of the world, and having a face-to-face with a client or potential client may help seal a deal easier than making a phone call.stephaniesmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08254860361792670464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3935597265453768714.post-76460276341008801132012-03-25T11:16:00.298-07:002012-03-25T11:16:00.298-07:00I think you are right on all accounts voice contro...I think you are right on all accounts voice control is definitely here to stay, but I'd say that motion tracking will play a big part as well in all accounts as it has proven to be very useful. And as for video calls etc. I can see that companies may try to crack this market down and charge more for it as it continues to grow. Its market is huge and has a lot of potential.Mark Hammondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11624125015745993834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3935597265453768714.post-30746213729200937772012-03-19T21:20:22.355-07:002012-03-19T21:20:22.355-07:00I agree with your point about less handheld device...I agree with your point about less handheld devices. I presently carry both a cell phone and an iPod but I would gladly switch to carrying just one. I would hope this would lead to the creation or use of a longer lasting battery. Present battery technologies cannot last more than a day when used as a phone, music player and any other feature they might have. This really prohibits me from using my phone to its maximum potential as it would cause my battery to degrade much quicker.JasonBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04584478366919621009noreply@blogger.com
