Page 21: Communication!

Today’s technology!In today’s society, we have touch screen phones, global messaging in seconds, a wide variety of social media networks, such as Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr. These sites make communication simple and instant throughout the world.We can use the internet on our phones as well, without having to be attached to a landline. Newer technology is released ever year to advance what we already have advanced.

Modern day “cell phone”

The future!With technology advancing so quickly, new releases are soon to be outdated.People had predicted that we’d have flying cars by the year 2000 before the technology was advanced that far.But even as we speak, engineers are designing a car meant to drive on both land and water! Flying is just the next step.With most cell phones as touch screens, we are evolving to the point where we won’t even need buttons. Not just in phones, but at all! TV’s, cars, computers, etc. will all be touch controlled! 3D television is in production, so I believe that holograms replacing screens is just a short step away and that all of this can be achieved in the next 15 years!
