In the 1970's the first email surfaced thanks to computer engineers seeking a way to send data from one computer to another, trying to make life magical and easier, with cyber mail particles traveling through space and landing into your computer database.
Then in 2002 Social Media was brought to life thanks to Myspace, Facebook (my Facebook), Twitter (my new attempt at Twitter, check it), Pinterest (my attempt at Pinterest), Foursquare and the social media chain goes on and on in the gigabyte world.
Snail mail is no longer seen as the only way to communicate to your sweetheart or sending documents to another client or co-worker to sign and send back. Weeks turn into a few minutes thanks to internet, social media, phone apps, text messaging, e-mails, fax, and my personal favorite Google Docs.
Along with these massive changes you have technology and devices trying to catch up with the internet, you have Comcast, At&t, Time Warner, Windstream, Bell South, Alltel, and loads of other service providers trying to make a way in the virtual world to create both quick, easy, and accurate access to the net, along with all its many accessories known as mobile apps on mobile devices, video search engines like YouTube, photo sharing sites such as photobucket and flickr, widgets on blogs and other websites to make it quick to get what you want whenever you want it. I could keep going with all the new ideas popping up around every millisecond, but you get the idea.
So, with mobile apps, you have the world at your fingertips that can call, view, scan, copy, take pictures, ask you questions on what to remember and remind you about later, or what to have for diner, and who is hot in the news, as well as something as simple as Doctor on Demand. With Doctor on Demand you can connect within minutes to a real live breathing physician face-to-face to help diagnosis you or answer any questions you may have without even having to leave the comforts of your own home.
The world is ever growing and ever changing and all we can do is try to understand all the possibilities, and we are able to do that through these apps, search engines, and emails and so forth. Widgets to give someone a quick overview of what they can access is seconds, social media by allowing us to view, watch, and follow others with the same interests or quick and instant messaging, and mobile apps for on the go people around the world with on the go attitudes.
