Smartphone infographic is out of this world


How far we've come
Using technology as a whole planet, the timeline shows the changes in those three categories as moons circulating the planet. In music, we go from vinyl records in the 1970's to MP3 players out just after the turn of the century, to mobile apps with cassette tapes and CDs in between. Communications starts with paper mail (snail mail to you geeks) and progresses to mobile email, instant messaging and social networks in the 21st Century. Storage starts with floppy discs and runs up to today's cloud based storage.
Near the bottom of the infograph is a section about the Global Impact of Smartphones which gives us some interesting trivia. For example, 80% of smartphone users in the states don't leave home without their smartphone. The average U.S. smartphone owner has 23 apps installed on his/her device. In the U.K., 33% of smartphone owners are between 25-34 and 80% of the region's smartphone users regularly visit social networks like Twitter or Facebook. In Germany, 90% of smartphone users use their handset for entertainment. In Spain, 58% use the search function on their smartphone daily while in the United Arab Emirates, 84% use their smartphone to watch television and video.
One look at the infograph shows how far we've come. Considering the achievements made in a short time, can you imagine where we will be just 5 years from now?
