Mobile phones have become the most popular platform of communication in many developing countries, such as India and Korea. As of today, cell phone ownership is more common than landlines in these two emerging countries. There is a huge difference in the role that cell phones play in these two developing countries, yet there are many similarities as well. Overall, mobile phones have made a large impact on both India and Korea in ways such as regulations, beneficial developments, and even addiction. In rural parts of India, citizens feel as if they do not have a voice because there are no newspapers, radio stations, or TV channels in their language. Internet usage does not even reach one percent in rural India because of the lack of language translation. Journalists call this the “Media Dark Zone”, where media is almost invisible. Shubhranshu Choudhary, a journalist in India, started a mobile phone network to help give citizens a voice and the equal rights to be heard. In the documentary Using Mobile Phones to Empower India’s Poor produced by National Geographic, Choudhary talks about the benefits of mobile phones by saying, “Anybody and everybody who has a story can tell everything, share everything and will pick up his or her phone and tell her story in her own language.” Citizens in rural India don’t have to wait for a journalist to arrive. With mobile phones, these citizens become journalists and can tell their own stories. Naresh Bunkar, a rural activist in India,

Medical science says that the radiation of mobile phone is too bad for human health.
Mobile phone has been a daily necessity towards every human in almost every age group. Mobile phones nowadays are capable of so many things compared to the first ever mobile phone that was created in 1970s that looked like a brick with an antenna. As the title suggest, mobile phone ownership has exploded globally. This could be confirmed as the use of mobile phones are expanding to not only MEDC like the U.S., but also the LEDCs like Kenya. Even though the use of phone has exploded, but the usage of mobile phones in the two countries mentioned are different, which also made The US a periphery and Kenya as a core in terms of the mobile phone usage.

Despite being written in the 1960s and 1980s, the theories outlined in Marshall McLuhan’s work “The Medium is the Message” and Langdon Winner’s work “Do Artifacts Have Politics” are still applicable today, even with the subsequent forms of technology and media that have been introduced to modern society. Such new forms of media, specifically the mobile phone, are still technological and political artifacts and as a result, have a significant influence on society. However, the extent to which the mobile phone is political and its role in shaping media technology is a point of complexity that is crucial to examine. With careful consideration of both Winner and McLuhan’s theories, we can infer that the mobile phone is yet another artifact containing
Thesis: The usage of cell phones in modern day society has caused quite the problem for citizens in this generation by being a major distraction, causing addictions, and has sadly became the main resource of communication.
Have you ever wondered what would the world resemble in the event that we didn 't have any cell phones? Why is it that we get out of our comfort zone when we do not have access to our phones? Nowadays, cell phones have such a noteworthy effect on our day to day lives, and we owe it to the advancement of technology. In this research paper, we will take a closer look at this phenomenon by examining the evolution of cell phone devices, and it’s effects on society.
Ever since cellular phones first came to be in the 1980’s, people have been using them to carry out conversations, ask questions, or meet new people. Once cell phones reached a height of internet capabilities, smartphones were created. Cell phones from then on ended up changing society entirely. This research study could explain the effects of cell phones from their creation to today’s society and how they would influence the future generations. This study would also focus on the evolution of how cell phones become even more involved in our lives and how they truly influence us. This study would be beneficial to our generation by teaching them how technology is expanding, and the lives of humans will get easier as time goes on. Furthermore, this study would be beneficial as a report on how cell phones came to be in our history. This would expectedly heighten the awareness of society to how different our lives could be according to technological development. To the future researchers, this study could be used as a base for data in future development into how society adapts.
Following the time when the mid 1980s, phones have been rapidly moving their route into our commonplace lives, particularly with the presentation of cam telephones in the early part of the new thousand years. As cells develop they have more of an effect on our commonplace lives and I need to exactly how much they are affecting. Similarly as with new engineering in whatever other structure, phones have changed enormously over their generally short life compasses. As these progressions happen, so does the populaces like and here and there loathe for these new advanced cells. One of the real issues happening with cell telephones in present day times is that individuals use them at wrong times, for example, when they are looking at of a market. Despite the fact that there are a couple negative perspectives about phones, my exploration and my paper are going to mostly the profits of Pdas in the United States of America. My exploration concentrates on a few key regions in wireless correspondence, for example, the advancement of Pdas, content informing, Pdas and other PDA applications and in addition my own particular exploration including a overview that I dispersed to some of my colleagues.

With these large numbers it only makes sense that interpersonal communication has strayed away from face-to-face communication and veered towards mobile communication. The purpose of this paper is to clearly explain why mobile, text based communication is not only a great tool in the hands of its users despite claims that it is the threatening face-to-face interactions.
