Essay from the year 2015 in the subject Sociology - Communication, , language: English, abstract: Smartphones, i.e. small, lightweight, mobile computers which can exchange data with the internet via cellular phone networks and integrate a telephone, a camera, a GPS receiver, a touchscreen and a keyboard (which is located in general on the touchscreen) provide resources for their users around the clock, but potentially for other people as well through user data. Because of their potentially permanent communication with the internet, they make up a new, ubiquitous quality of incorporation of the user and possibilites of participation.
