Do you think its odd or peculiar that the telephone as cell phone (so names for its design as a purveyor of  “phon” –sound) has been adapted to purvey text as image? Why do you imagine this change has occurred?

     I think that technology in this day and age is always looking for bigger and better, or you could say smaller and better. Always trying to make things easier for people. We have become such a lazy society that people feel it is easier to type on a phone and make it short and sweet rather than sit with a phone to their ear speaking out loud taking up time. If you text you have a lot more time to answer then if it was a face to face conversation or on the phone. In my case I like texting better, it’s easier for me, and I actually answer a lot quicker. The only problem is, is that people have problems interpreting what people are saying and how they are saying it, for example if you were having a fight. Although I feel cell phones is an addicting technology, which can be considered dangerous when using it the wrong way at the wrong times.
