[Nick Robichaud]

This is something I encountered often while in highschool in the early millenium. People who are glued to their cell phones. This is a trend that should have been expected. The more technological means we have for communication. Take early american culture, the women would get together and attend quilting bees(or the like), and they would use this time to gossip about whatever was going on in the town. While the men would do the same at the local pub. These activities were time consuming and were not every day events. But the advent of the telephone allowed people to talk more frequently. The only disadvantage to the telephone was that both parties must be in a certain place (near their respective phones) for the phone conversation to function. Cell phones allieviate this proble, if they are always on your person, then you can call or be called at any point. I’m not saying cell phones are only used for gossip, they can be used for many things. But no matter what they are used for, they become a much more accesable method of communication.
