The long and slow decline of the traditional phone lines

There was once a time when the traditional phone lines were king. But not anymore, more and more people are ditching the traditional land lines for the convenience of a cellular phone. Even there has now been a significant decline in the pay phone booth that used to dot the landscape of the American land. In the start there was regular cell phone service but now there is a huge number of sophisticated cell phones which do more than just dial the number. They are now been used as a mobile office, where you can surf the internet, check your email or play games.

More and more people are using cell phones and the number is increasing day by day especially in the developing nations where the traditional monopolistic and nationalistic phone companies are no match for the multi national cellular companies.

The best part of the cell phone is the convenience of being able to connect to any body at any time of day from anywhere. You don’t need to be at home to receive your calls as you can instantly get connected and by time you reach home have already finished your calls. Although you still see people in pictures having land lines getting home and receiving their messages but there has also been increasing number of cell phones the actors are using and this you will see more and more in new movies.

These cell phones are becoming increasingly sophisticated and are thus being used as a mobile office so that you are always connected and always in business. Is this bad or good only time will tell as people will get more tiresome after being connected constantly.
