Mobile technologies (Part 6)

With the WWW being accessible via mobile phone, it allows people to interact with their work from home or anywhere as emails can be accessed. This means people can work from home and carry on with their job, which is in the businesses eyes, an advantage, but from the employers eyes, this is a disadvantage, as it becomes a conflict with their social life.

With phones, the internet access is now portable via WiFi or 3G, Websites need to adapt to the phone's layout. So now websites that are accessed via phone now contain "m." before their web address. This is to prevent confusion when using the phone and the websites features are more easily accessed with their touch screen.

Restaurants and and other public areas are now including WiFi for people who visit with mobile devices to connect to. This is efficient for both customer and companies, as people who visit for the WiFi are mainly people who work with emails or other internet essentials, who will also perhaps buy a beverage, being beneficial for the company.

  1. Your points that you have given are good, but you could have mentioned that now the internet provides cloud storage and dropbox. Thus allowing employees to upload the work they did at home on to the company's drive, so they can access the info in the workplace.

  2. I agree with what you have said here, you could also say that working from home is a great distraction as they may have a busy noisy home which could be hard to concentrate in.
