Image From Simon Hayhurst
Are Wearables The
Next Big Thing?
By: Patrick
Johnson
With the advent of the cell phone people became more
connected than ever before. A person could receive a call
anywhere at any time
Image From
Vaguely Artistic
The smartphone allowed people to have mobile
internet connection and access to social media at
their fingertips anywhere.
Image From
Highways Agency
Wearable technology may be the next step from
smartphones allowing not only internet on demand,
but constant and uninterrupted feed from the
internet and social media.
Image From lawrencegs
But will this breakthrough
technology allowing even more
consumption of virtual data have a
positive impact on our lives, or will
it lead to more problems than
benefits?
Image from John
Morris
Image From: Theophilos Papadopoulos
Smartphones and online profiles
are held by the majority of
teens and young adults
In 2008 77% of 15-17 year olds have an online
profile [1]
In 2008 71% of 12-17 year olds have a cell
phone up from 45% in fall 2004 [1]
Image From r.f.m.II
Cell phones have become ubiquitous over the
past few years making up the majority of
mobile phone sales in 2013 at 968 million sold
[2]
Image From West
However the increase in the availability
of social media due to these sales has a
cost
Image From: Mervi Eskelinen
Social media distractions are
estimated to cost Businesses in
the United States $650 billion
per year [3]
Image From
Purple Slog
Image From:
Purple Slog
I takes on average 25
minutes to return to a
task after distracted [4]
Employees spend
about 11 minutes
working between
distractions [4].
Social Media being
a large contributor
Image From Nicholas
Wang
Technology does not just affect our
attention while being used, but when
turned off as well
Image From LearnerWeb
The average attention span
has dropped from 12 minutes
to 5 minutes in the last 10
years [5]
Image From Mr.
TinDC
The constant use of social media
has more impact than just on
attention span and distractions, it
can also affect social health
Image From Aslan
Media
There is a strong correlation between
increased time building online profiles and a
decrease in quality of offline relationships [6]
Image from Hendrik
Dacquin
The presence of social media is
having a negative impact on our
lives.
Image From mkhmarketing
However it seems that tech
companies are still looking to
allow consumers to have even
more access to social media
Image From AndYaDontStop
Some consumers seem to be going in the opposite
direction. More an more people getting rid of
smartphones and leaving facebook. [7], [8]
Image from
Kenny Stoltz
Wearables may not after all be the
next step for communication. If many
are finding that the current
incarnations of portable technology
intrude on their life and lessen its
quality, then wearable technology
seems like it is doomed to fail.
