In the early 1980s to have a mobile phone was an impossible luxury to most people in the world. People did not usually assume that they had to reach someone via a mobile phone on a regular basis. It didn’t matter if you didn’t have a mobile phone. In the modern society owning a mobile phone has no longer been a privilege, but a necessity. Almost anyone needs a mobile phone to reach as well as be reached by others no matter where they are. The days are gone when phone ownership depended on a fixed address and a high salary.   

It is amazing to see how fast and how far the mobile phone has spread. Teenagers have become the channel through which mobile phones have found their way into the wider society. The young were also the first to see the potential of text messaging. However, the mobile phone is by no means a mere technological innovation; it heightens a basic human quality ―the ability to communicate ―there are few aspects of life that it fails to touch.

The mobile phone is mobile only because the user is mobile. We are in a time of mobility. Never before have so many people been on the move, whether as commuters, workers, travelers, freelancers or migrants. Mobile phones encourage and respond to this mobility. They help those far away from their home to keep in touch with their families. They serve as a means of people fitting into a new social environment.

The mobile phone changes the way people organize their lives. Plans can be made or changed at any moment and while organizing in advance used to be extremely important to any social gathering, now only the vaguest plans are necessary. Mobile phones even change the experience of being alone as they provide countless way to pass the time.

It is ridiculous to compare a mobile to a body part, but carried on the person, often all the time, they are something to which people have grown attached.

Your friend might be in Australia or maybe just down the road, but those are all just a few clicks away.Life has changed for millions of teenagers across the world who now make friends online.Whether you use chat room, QQ, MSN or ICQ, you are part of virtual community.

“I rarely talk with my parents or grandparents, but I talk a lot with my old friends on QQ,” said Fox’s Shadow, the online nickname used by a Senior 2 girl in China.“Eight percent of my classmates use QQ after school.”

QQ is the biggest messaging service in China.A record 4 million people use it one Saturday night in October, according to Tencent, the company which developed QQ.

And Fox’s Shadow might well have been one of them.“I log in on Friday nights, and Saturdays or Sundays when I feel bored.I usually spend about 10 hours chatting online every week,” she said.“But I rarely talk with strangers, especially boys or men.”
   Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online.“You don’t know who you are talking to.You should always be careful about who you trust online.”

Many people would like to meet offline when they feel they have to know someone very well.Fox’s Shadow once met one of her online friend face to face.It was a girl who was a comic fan like herself and they went to a comic show together.

However, not all teenagers have been so fortunate.At the beginning of this year, a 17-year-old girl in Liaoning Province was raped after meeting a friend she had found on QQ.

A 16-year-old Beijing boy, known online as Bart Simon, dislikes QQ users.“I used to chat on QQ.But I found that most people were talking nonsense.” He said.Now he chats online in English, using MSN.“I only chat online because I’ve got friends in Japan, the US and Singapore,” he said., “I want to learn more about foreign cultures.” But he spends little time chatting as he sees it as a waste of time and money.

“If you are really addicted to it sometimes you just can’t concentrate in class,” he said.“And the friends in your real life are always more important than those so-called friends you meet online.”
