Hot:

I ran into this blog post today and I just had to comment on it.

Christina Warren a guest writer for Mashable talks about the rising popularity of Smartphones based on a study done by RingCentral which talkes about how the use of smartphones has become just as popular as sex.

I don’t know about you but I would rather have sex over my Blackberry Bold any day, however ever since I started using smartphones it has become a little bit addictive. Especially now that everything is so accessible on your phone these days… it’s just powerful the things that you can do with your phone now….it’s crazy. Pretty soon you will be able to pay your taxes on your smartphone…Simply Amazing!

I believe that I use my Blackberry Bold just as much or even more than use my PC (It could be because my Sony Vaio got issues of it’s own but that’s another story).

In her blog post Christina writes about this case study that RingCentral did with about 400 customers and here is the scoop:

  • 79% of respondents use their smartphones to conduct most business calls, versus an office phone or home phone.
  • 34% use a smartphone more than a computer for business. 7% even said they don’t take their laptops with them when they travel for business if they have a smartphone.
  • 48% of respondents said that at least two-thirds of their phone communication is via smartphone.
  • Smartphones and intimate relationships tied at 40% for the number one thing respondents can’t live without.

Very interesting poll done by RingCentral but it sparked me to start my own survey..

So I got a few questions of my own.

After you have answered each question (only 5 quick fun ones) hit next to go to the next question, then hit “Submit Survey”.

What is the first thing you do in the morning?






If your house was on fire..what would you pick up first?







Where is the weirdest place that you have used your smartphone?
If you had do buy a smartphone all over again which will it be?




If you had an option between having sex or using your smartphone which would you choose? (It\'s a no brainer but I had to ask:)




I would love your feedback on this topic…

If you have a question to the survey to add, put in the comment box below and I will add it to the survey.

Until next time…

    Very interesting blog post Kyle, but I liked it =) Smartphones are definitely taking over and they are only going to be more sophisticated and incorporated into our everyday lives. It's crazy how many applications we use on a daily basis. They have literally changed our lives. Nice work and are you going to share the results of the survey? =)
