=A) Overview=

 Mobile devices are things that people are not only using, but they are starting to rely on them. There are many aspect that are involved with mobile devices ubiquitous. Some of them include the arts, the government, science,leisure and many other topics that are involved. Each of these topics are more complex and deal with many different things. Take leisure for example, now a days people are using their mobile devices to not only connect threw phone calls and text messages, but with videoconferencing. Sooner or later mobile deivces are going to be able to do more then they do already.  Mobile and ubiquitous is what now in days keeps us connected. Cellphone/smart phones, Ipods,Ipads, laptops, etc. are examples of mobile and ubiquitous. All of these devices are mobile and help us communicate anywhere we go. Around the world people use cellphones, Ipads anything electric and mobile to communicate with each other. Technology has sure taken over. As time progresses our technology keeps developing more and more. Technology is now what we rely on.

// Not to long ago, mobile devices practically took over the world by becoming smaller and more accessible in more areas. Nowadays, almost everyone is mobile.T //// here are tablets, mobile phones with apps, and even laptops that pretty much run the world around us. Whether or not you believe it, it's happening, the mobile evolution. Now ////, I don't mean that technology is lite //// rally running our planet, but the people who do, definitely use the most advanced technology that we have to this day. //// Japan is the #1 place to go if you're looking for state of the art technology. Whether or // // not you, the reader, are looking for it is on you. //// Now people really do misunderstand me when I try to explain this evolution, because they just don't want to believe it, but you have to face it, it's true. And just think, as you're reading this Wiki, the world is being reformed by technology. Now I'm sure that this change wasn't planned when they came out with the first computers, but now that we're at this point, there's no heading back ////. //



//The technology we have today benefits// // our economy more than we can even begin to fathom. All // //around the world, some kind of technology is being used to// //either track economic growth, or even economic decline.// //The technology can almost serve as a starting point of base// // for the economy to grow. And without some kind of //// innovation, then the country can never prosper to it's full //// potential. // = = = = = = All of technology has changed throughout the years. In recent years we have witnessed a dramatic trend towards mobile and ubiquitous computing.  Everyone all around is connected to the web one way or another. As cellphones get smaller and smarter technology is growing rapidly word wide. With new advised technology like the ipad 2, smart phones ect. All this new technology is changing our world. For example, We have even gone to the point where we don’t need paper back books. Now in days we use E-books. Our world is a full on tech world. People use technology more as the days pass. Everything is about technology. New cellphones such as the Evo, iphone 4, smart phones, and the G-thrill. Phones are now even 3D. Smart phone will consolidate schedules, allowing the phone to make decisions about whether or not to contact its users. To ensure its global impact, they are partnering with Moro-do, a United Kingdom-based company. (Aol, 2012) = =

[|__http://www.mediasciencelearning.com/Wiki/Mobile_Media_And_Informal_Science_Education__] Budget cuts have affected us all. Teachers ,students almost everyone have been affected. Without the money we use to have, we aren't able to do fun things .Students learning environment is being affected not only by the budget cuts ,but also by the technology that we have now. People are spending more time buying things that aren't really helpful, when they should be worrying about the children who aren't getting all the material that they need to pass to the next grade. Some teachers have to buy school material from their own pocket, since the school is low on money and can't spend on things that aren't really "important". But even though we have a hard time in school we are still able to learn something out of all this. __http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/14/la-youth_n_1277182.html__

D) Government, Politics and Employment
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Mobile and ubiquitous computing now plays a major role in government, politics, and employment. All around the world videoconferencing is very popular. Different countries now use Skype and other video <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">chat websites to communicate. Its easier to communicate with companies across the word. <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">For example, the president could talk to the vice president and other members of congress safely via technology. Political officials inform people what is going on in campaigns via Facebook or Twitter. Technology creates fewer boundaries in the[| campaigning election].

E) Arts, Entertainment and Leisure
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Now a days, mobile devices have become a part of our daily routine, and now they aren’t just used for working purposes, but also for leisure and entertainment. When it comes to mobile devices there are other things that are intertwined. Some include videoconferencing and Computer Graphics. Both of these deal with art, entertainment, and leisure.Take videoconferencing for example, not only is it on your computers but now there are mobile apps that you can download on your phone. Videoconferencing is used for business purpose, but on the other hand people use it on a daily basis to get in touch with people that are hundreds or thousands miles away. When it comes to entertainment music companies are now using videoconferencing so they can conference with all there artists if they are not able to go into the studio.Another aspect, which deals more with art is computer graphics. What are computer graphics? Well they are many things that it refers to. They are: the representation and manipulation of image data by a computer, he various technologies used to create and manipulate images, the images so produced, and the sub-field of computer science which studies methods for digitally synthesizing and manipulating visual content, see study of computer graphics. //

F) Science, Environment, and Health
//Analyze the impact of this topic on science, the environment and health. Include a brief summary on this main page of up to 200 words. Include one or more relevant images.// <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> **//Health://** //Mobile devices can be used in hospitals to monitor patients health. These mobile devices can help doctors find cures and be faster about there results and keep track of their data without losing anything. These can present challenges though, like having the machines stop working or break down. An estimated 70 percent of physicians have a smart phone or a tablet PC such as an iPad. Mobile technology can help the patient take care of him or herself and others. These technology based things can help the patients find out certain things without having to make an appointment with a doctor and waste money.//
