Transition from HomePhones to Cell phones ■ Roger’sTheory of Innovation as it pertains to this transition ■ Over time more and more people have gone away from a home phone for their family and give each individual a cell phone. ■ It could possibly take 10 years before home phones aren’t even sold in stores anymore. Home phones for our kids in 10 years may just be something from a book and old shows. ■ The use of caller ID and all the other features make home phones obsolete according to Roger’s chart, it is in the Laggards stage

- 10. Future of Social Media cont. ■In responsible hands, social media can be used to send out mass information to people. ■ It also is a filter that allows people to choose what they want to see. ■ On the other end, could dependency on social media be leading to issues in the future? ■ This is one of the negative things that could happen in the future. ■ I hope we learn to be more responsible with social media in the next ten years.
- 11. Future of PrintMedia ■ Print media is in a delicate balance right now. Much like landlines it is something that is quickly becoming a thing of the past. ■ Even the Sunday paper that people love to get because of the coupons is being lost because of apps like groupon.

As the baby boomer generation who has loyal ties to the newspaper are phased out, the inevitable number of companies and revenue will be close to 0 in the next ten years. ■ The people wanted news and information at their fingertips and every second. ■ The rise of click bait news and Facebook link news is replacing what people are reading in their mornings with coffee.
