In regards to the reading on Mobile Phones by McGuigan Towards a Sociology of the Mobile Phone (2005), it had brought to light some aspects I never thought about mobile phones and it's users in regards on how they interact in society and they're feelings towards the use of mobile phones in public and private spaces. The notion of outies, innies, tradition directed users, inner-directed users and outer-directed users provide very interesting ways a looking at how we use mobile phones and maybe a social stigma we place on the use of mobiles. As Mcguigan describes mobiles as a 'prosthetics', a once luxury item turned into an item of neccesity nowadays; its everywhere.
I remember when I was in college (many moons ago) about sixth form and there was a minority of people who had phones and now even my little cousins in intermediate have mobiles. We can see the importance we place on mobiles in keeping us in the loop increasing with various txting deals being offered and webistes such as sms.ac which offer a networking site to send txts over the internet to mobiles world wide, the site lets you have 10txts month when you sign up but anything over that you have to pay for, well click on the link enjoy and let me know what you guys think of the site.
