Mitchell, Amy. (2012). The Future of Mobile News. Pew Research Center. http://www.journalism.org/files/legacy/Futureofmobilenews%20_final1.pdf
With technology advancing, many people now-a-days use their smartphones for various reasons. After reading this article, I realized how important it has become to own a mobile device. We can download apps from newspapers or news channels to keep us updated with information, either locally or nationally. Our mobiles are like mini portable computers. With it, we can do numerous things: send and receive emails, get the latest news, play games, shop, connect with others user social media networks, read books, etc. In this article, it stated that 53% of mobile users check their mobile devices for any new news before 8 a.m. So true! A soon as I wake up, around 6 a.m., that's the first thin I do. I check my local news app, CNN app, Facebook, and the Weather Channel app. It didn't surprise me that this article stated that Tablets are mostly used by children and mainly used for reading. My nieces and nephews own Tablets and that what they do! They use them to read and play games. All in all, we depend on our mobile devices a little too much! I know I depend on my iPhone a little too much!
