Rin wrote a cell phone novel telling us how our lives depend on the phones. The book was great was a top 10 seller in the year of 2007. She shows how much we depend on them as our lives would be different without them. In all of our free time...half of it goes to use on our cell phones. Weather it is a simple call to your friend or even a serious call to someone important. Even with all its features that we still you can stay hooked on the phone. Overall our lives would be well different with out the advancment of technology and cell phones.

The Battle of the Webpages






It's true that currently right now, the big buisness makers on the internet are websites like Google, Yahoo, and Facebook. But the question is...what about the future? Everything indeed does change over time but from the shift to a big major company to the danger of losing it all, is MAJOR! Right now it stands that yahoo is currently losing many viewers to facebook and google. As yahoo's new C.E.O spoke the other day, the first he did was appologize. He appologized about the fact that yahoo isnt going up to everyones need and expectations. Even though these companys dont seem similar they really are. Think about it, three companies on the internet that are each very popular. Can be used to contact people, and look up things. Well if there are three of them, its not going to be an equal distrubution of 33% of the worlds populations using only one of them. People are going to use the one they like best. These websites have to keep up to the world and also to peoples expectations just to survive. It will really be interesting to see 40 years from now if people still even know what yahoo, google, or facebook really are.
