Chicago Tribune December 27, 2009.
This was the decade that the hand-held devices became ubiquitous. Seems like everyone has a cell phone and iPod. Sites like Facebook and MySpace grew tremendously. Knowledge was shared by Wikipedia and then came Twitter. Then there are those blog things.
US TEXT MESSAGES SENT EACH MONTH
2000 12.2 million
2005 2 billion
2006 13 billion
2007 30 billion
2008 75 billion
2009 135 billion
Well, I was finally forced to get a cell phone, but can hardly operate it. I don't have an iPod and am not on Facebook or MySpace and have never Twitted or Texted.
When's the last time you saw a kid or teenager not glued to something they were holding in their hands? Just wondering if there is anyone else like me out there?
