Mobile+Domination

=**How Does Mobile Domination work?**= Mobile phones have since taken over a large part of our lives they are a part of everything we do and has had a large impact on our lives. Mobile phones first came onto the market in the 1980's as big bulky, ugly beige objects. Today they are the small, sharp, sleek surgeons tools of communications we have come to appreciate. When mobile phones first started to become common in the late 1990's and early 2000's no one really expected the chunky, ugly mobile phone to come as far as it has today. Back then all you can do is make local calls because international calls would cost way to much. Today in 2009, mobile phones do just about EVERYTHING!!! With mobile phones not only can you make calls to pretty much anyone but you can also do things like send text messages to your friends. You may also send pictures and videos with your phone. With PDA's you can type short messages and you can also use it for a schedule. This is useful for busy people who are always on the go.Today with pretty much any phone, you can use it to go online and visit your favourite websites.

These capabilites sound enticing but how do these capabilites tie into dominating the world? Well if you think about it, alot of us now use online social networking as a way to communicate. [|Social networking] allows the whole world to communicate and get together to share their lives online. With the introduction of high capabilty mobile phones we can now check our facebook profiles on the go. Not only can we check our social networking profiles but mobile phones have allowed us to also communicate and email others on the go. For example, you're stuck on a road trip and you wanna know how your stocks are doing. You're miles away from any Wifi Hotspot so you cant use your laptop and you recently just bought a large amount of stocks. You wanna make sure your portfolio is doing good so you use your phone to check your stocks. When you find out that they're steadily dropping you decide to get out of the game so you call your stock broker in London and tell him to sell them ASAP saving you thousands of dollars in personal loss.

=**To sum it all up...**= Okay all this is awesome but how does it relate to globalization? Because in today's world everyone has a phone, they can communicate almost instantanously. this levels the playing field for less developed countries that want to succeed. The mobile phone gives them the power to communicate on the go. By giving developing countries the same oppurtunities to have mobile communication, you therefore level the playing field for them.
