This September commences a variety of new Smartphones.
The iPhone 6 came out a week ago, with larger Sapphire crystal screens, faster
A8 chip and a slimmer look. Similarly, Samsung, the Korean tech giant, rivaled
Apple by releasing Galaxy Alpha and Note. No doubt soon many of these mobile
devices will go to the hands of many readers, and join our campus and
classrooms. However, besides the security crises of
Cloud service that sparked recently, you also need to consider other important
aspects about using a Smartphone.
Some may regard Smartphone as merely a convenient
device for communication. But in retrospect, the Smartphones business and
social apps, have casted revolutionary impacts to the human society. Last century, a talented Archaeologist V. Gordon
Childe notified in his book “Man made
himself” that human beings “progress” by changing economy patterns. The transformation of subsistence, such as from hunter-gathering
to farming, is revolutionary to human history because it can influence the way
people forming society. From this perspective, we may consider the use
of Smartphone as a new revolution, which reshapes our ways of subsistence,
social networking, and self-identity.
