Evolution of Mobile Technology.



In early 2000 the growth of internet was rapidly developing and use of mobile devices have increased during the last decade as mobile is more portable and accessible compared other devices. The mobile technology has gone through significant improvements such as GPS, Social networking, weather updates, access to internet at anytime from anywhere  with personalized content and customization. Therefore the growth of the usage has increased in 90% with in the decade compared to 1990's. 

Reasons why mobile devices are commonly used today.

1. Tablets and mobile devices are more user friendly with compact screen and enhanced interfaces those which are easy to navigate. .
2. Voice recognition software which a keyboard is not essential and saves time for typing text.
3. Touch-screens that brings the technology on finger tips more quick and attractive..
4. Cloud-based storage and software that avoids data loss and automatic backup to photos, documents and other personal data with personalized views.  
5. Mobile devices are only going to get more powerful with less weight and smaller size.

Therefore it is fairly predictable that mobile is the future of technology with devices that are more powerful yet compact and portable. But the smaller it becomes harder to design the interfaces as the user interfaces needs to be user friendly and easy to navigate yet attractively present the content which is one of the major arguments, whether usability or attractiveness?
