It’s the year 2015. Over the past couple of years technology

changing everyday… but no one knew just how much it
could change..

smart phones. We can change the TV channel, and turn our
security system on. We have 3d televisions, and everything
is blue tooth.. But yet there is still much more room to
grow..

4. CRITICAL MASS THEORY
The critical mass theory deals with how when a lot of people
have something, it makes everyone want it. For example
right now people would love to have a watch phone, but its
only available on the Galaxy Note, and most people do not
like the size. When it become available to all smart phones,
everyone is going to get it, and those who do not are going
to want it because of everyone having it.

that works on a phone. However in the year 2025 all smart
phones will come paired with a watch. This watch is going to
go above and beyond. Anything you can do on your phone
you will be able to do on the watch as well. There will even
be a virtual keyboard. There will be different sizes and styles
to fit everyone's taste.

It will be able to help you make every day choices, such as
what to where or which way you should take to work.

9. MEDIA DEPENDENCY
The home connect is going to relate to Media Dependency
because people are so dependent on the media. The media is
going to hype the home Kinect up and make it seem like the
greatest thing out there. Which it really would be because of
all the technology it uses.

more and more. Some have even been using lap tops in the
class room, and eBooks instead of text books.
