  • The wireless trade association CTIA and Harris Interactive surveyed some 2,000 teens across the country and learned that teens feel that cell phones have become a vital part of their identities.
  • Another recent survey conducted by Nielsen revealed that kids are getting cell phones even before they hit their teens. Nearly half of kids age 8 to 12 years old own cell phones in the U.S, according to the Nielsen report. And on average kids get their first cell phone between the ages of 10 and 11 years old.
  • Most of the teens on the panel agreed that Apple's href="http://www.cnet.com/apple-iphone.html" class="link" target="new">iPhone is the coolest phone on the market. But none of them owned one, largely because the devices are too expensive and so is the monthly service fee from AT&T.

    "As cell phones become more ubiquitous, it's becoming increasingly easy to use them for positive action. We've been talking about that quite a bit lately here on Planet Green, and one of the organizations whose name keeps popping up is Mobile Active. They're a great group, and deserve a highlight. Mobile Active, as they succinctly state, is "a global network of people using mobile technology for social impact." The group recognizes that there are billions of phones across the world being used by people in even the most unlikely of places. More are entering the consumer stream on a daily basis. Therefore, a cell phone is the perfect tool with which to engage people for activism. The group works to help organizations understand how they can use mobile phones to get people involved in social change or improve their organization, reduce the costs of getting mobile phones into the hands of people who need them, speed up the adoption of mobile phones as a tool among non-profits, and facilitate the implementation of mobile phone projects and campaigns. Mobile Active takes part in issues ranging from health to environment to disaster relief. You can search through all the many projects they're involved in with their mDirectory. As you look through, there's no doubt you'll be inspired and think about your cell phone in a whole new way - as a tool for changing the world. Check out the Good Call feature here on Planet Green for great information about cell phones and activism.

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Health 2.0 (as well as the closely related concept of Medicine 2.0[1]) are terms representing the possibilities between health care, eHealth and Web 2.0, and has come into use after a recent spate of articles in newspapers, and by Physicians and Medical Librarians.[2][3] A concise definition of Health 2.0 is the use of a specific set of Web tools (blogs, Podcasts, tagging, search, wikis, etc) by actors in health care including doctors, patients, and scientists, using principles of open source and generation of content by users, and the power of networks in order to personalize health care, collaborate, and promote health education.[4] A possible explanation for the reason that Health has generated its own "2.0" term are its applications across health care in general, and in particular it potential in public health promotion.

Netflix's Real Problem | The Wrap Media - 0 views

  • Netflix's problem is that it fundamentally has little leverage with the studios
  • doubling its price
  • To ensure Netflix's survival, CEO and Co-Founder Reed Hastings ultimately has two  options: he must make Netflix a content player in its own right - something he's attempting to do by reportedly paying more than $100 million for Netflix's first original TV series, The David Finch/Kevin Spacey thriller "House of Cards". Or he can merge with a player that guarantees him distribution such as Hulu, Google, Amazon, or Dish, which has its own content-streaming network built from satellite business and the ruins of the Blockbuster video chain.

    We were just discussing this in our FCP class today. What do you think of the new FaceBook timeline? Some students felt it was a privacy concern and that it gives people the ability to "stalk" others easily. What do you think? This is a great current events topic for Topic 8, subtopic B in Social Networking/PLE's.
