The IPhone, in my opinion, is the most revolutionary piece of technology that has ever been created. Everyone pretty much already knows just what this smart phone can do just by seeing the commercials on TV. But, it is not only a computer that can turn your lights off if you have forgotten, or a phone that you can browse the Internet on while you are talking to your parents, it is entertainment at its finest. Here is an example, during one of my 1 hour and 15 min classes at school, I could check my Facebook, record my voice, my professors voice, or my friends voices, watch a movie or TV show, listen to music, play scrabble or doodle jump (or any of the other millions of games on the app store), and text my best friends. And we wonder where these bad grades come from. The IPhone has unlimited possibilities with it's features and truly provide us with something to do every second of every day.
The most exciting aspect of entertainment on the IPhone is the ability to communicate. A new trend with IPhone gaming is called Words With Friends. It is essentially a Scrabble game, but can be played with anyone who as an IPhone, anywhere, at any time. There is also a chat feature on the game to talk to your opponent while playing. My roommate has a friend from Holland and skypes with him constantly, however, that was her only form of communication with him and she could only talk to him at certain times. But, that was until they both realized they had IPhone and could play Words With Friends. So, not only is this game a form of entertainment from the IPhone but a way to communicate with someone half-way across the world, without worrying about international phone charges. Entertainment from the IPhone is as revolutionary as the phone itself, and who knows where it will bring us in the future.

Interesting that social technology has allowed us to communicate more, and know more about people than we ever have, but in turn has moved us further away from being connected, in a human sense, than we have ever been.I played words with friends with my family, all in the same room, and we hardley spoke.....sad
