Cell phones have greatly altered our main means of communication. Nearly every American has a cell phone since they became popular about 15 years ago. Small children even have cell phones to stay in touch with their parents.

Almost everyone has a cell phone and has had one for a while. Children as young as 7 years old even have a cell phone so parents know when to pick them up at soccer practice or from a friend's house. It's also a great device to keeping track of children and knowing where they are at all times. This device is indispensable and lays the pathway for how we communicate, all in the palm of our hand. With the internet being so prevalent, costs have been cut since you can access the internet at any time. With that, speed has greatly improved as well.

Also, with the new technology, we can quickly provide updates to our friends and family if traveling to meet somewhere, or picking up someone. Many times, we waste gas dollars running back and forth to the grocery store as well. Once simple device allows you to get quick updates when you're already there.

Quality of Communication
In the past, when you came across an unknown word, you would have to either be near a dictionary or ask someone the meaning. With cell phones being easily accessible in the palm of your hand, you can now quickly look up the meaning to word, translate a language from one you don't understand to one you do and allows you to have documentation of conversations to sum up arguments.

Accessibility to Information
Many cell phones serve as a main location for storing and making appointments and even getting GPS navigation on the road or in a city. Out are the days that wallet photos are used. Today, cell phones allow you to document special moments on the fly, sharing pictures and videos with friends and family straight from the device.

Access to information has also never been easier to obtain. Now-a-days, cell phones allows you to download specific applications that spark your interest. You now have quick and easy access to deals and promotions at your favorite stores, receiving a text message or email of discounts. You can also take quick photography or capture videos of special moment. Things such as accessing the weather, making calculations, etc. are also super easy.

Due to the great use of cell phones, communication, engagement and networking have never been easier.
