Studies have revealed that students are loosing their reading habit.
Ironically, Social media companies are springing up and the giants are
rolling in billions of revenue in dollars.
Why?
Phones have taken a new dimension. High definition screen androids
now dominate the market nokia 3310 which was a god 14 - 15years ago
can't be remembered again. Now, sony has a water tight phone, samsung
phones have cameras of 18mp+, a2w phones can be locked with the
eyeball and can be operated without touching the phone actually, but
by touching a few centimeters from the screen. Rumors have it that
holograms are coming in the nearest future. Now this is crazy
advancement in technology.
The worth of social media platforms double each year with an estimate
of 1million new members daily. Online shopping is now the order of the
day as giants like Amazon and Ebay have improved and faster means of
delivering purchases. Here in Nigeria, stores like Jumia, Konga etc
have made it even more convenient buy implementing a cash on arrival
policy.
In more advanced countries especially Western countries, Bookstores
can't afford to keep open. Read on google about how these bookstore
keepers lament. E-books are now the order of the day. They are
cheaper, very portable( can be carried in the computer or flash
without increasing the volume etc). They don't get old or stolen
neither do the words fade or the books have mis-printed pages. And the
market demand is increasing.
It has already been noted that we are in the computer age or internet
age. Everybody must learn to use an atm machine, pos, make online
transfers, use debit cards online, be computer literate, understand
other components that work with computers to land a reasonable job.
They are now necessary.
Some companies are even virtual. This helps to eliminate the cost of
office space, utilities etc. Although this is mainly true for small
sized businesses.
Many students prefer distance learning because of the flexibility. And
these degrees are well regarded and respected around the world. Now
even the later part of medical courses can be taken online.
Universities are expanding their list of online programs.
Its normal to go on google to search for information now as all
leading t.v channels and news agency have a strong presence online.
Its strange driving all the way down from one end of the state to the
office of an airline just to book a flight ticket. I bet some people
don't even know that airlines have offices. They know their website
address and they are good to go.
Little children are so smart that I dare not leave my phone near my
20month old nephew. He knows where the lock buttons are, he knows that
I dial numbers, hit the green button and put the phone close to my ear
and say hello? Now, he does that perfectly so I better keep my phone
safe or say goodbye to my air time. This boy is just beginning
kindergarten 1. Nursery school students in Thailand use tabs. Schools
in Los Angeles CA USA received 640,000 tabs for their students. A
governor in Nigeria awarded tabs to schools in his state. Just to
mention a few.
This is what is coming! Technology is turning fast. Position yourself
now so that you don't get left behind. What industry are you into?
Will you be knocked out of business when this new era takes place
firmly? Create an alternate now while there's still little time!
