This month we decided to do something different with our blog. We all know cellphones makes our lives so much easier so we started thinking about all the reasons we can no longer live without them. With all the things they can do with a plethora of technological advancements, it’s pretty easy to understand why we’ve become so attached to them. Here is a short list of things we came up with.
Breaking News!
Breaking news alerts on your phone is now the norm. News apps, the internet and social media provide regular updates on just about everything. Whether its happening across the globe or locally. There is no need to wait to get the news at the end of the day when we get home from our local TV Station or from reading a newspaper.
Listen To Music
Apps like Spotify, Apple Music and Pandora with their large music libraries offer access to just about any type of music at any time or place. All of this without having to carry a large boom box or even a small walkman for those who remember those devices with their limited capabilities.
Watch A Video
Why stop with music? Don’t miss your favorite TV shows again. With Apps like YouTube, and Hulu you can stream your favorite videos and even download them to watch later even when a Wi-fi connection is not available. .

With just your cell phone you can now meet someone without ever having to leave the comfort of your home. Millions have signed up and more are jumping on the bandwagon every day. Some of the most popular apps are Zoosk, eharmony, Match and Cupid to name a few.
