This week, the Carnival of the Mobilists returns to MobHappy, for a special edition for the end of year. So don't forget to check it out!
Since long ago, mobile phones have grown to be another organ of our body; we carry them everywhere with us. Moreover, mobiles have become an extension of our identity; they give information to society about us (gadget-freak, tech-savvy, hip teenager, etc…) the same way our looks and our body language do.
SIM cards initial purpose was to be our mobile identity, carrying subscriber’s identity module. With late technology developments, SIM cards allow more storage space, and are a platform for different applications. SIM cards manufacturers are developing a lot of new functionalities like controlling the light bulbs around the house, or enabling users to make secure payments. IMHO, the most impressing functionality, that we all should give a second thought, is the process of making mobile phone to be a proof of identity. Is this new functionality for our best on the long run?

For the last few days I've been trying to look for something special to say on my first post. No idea came into my mind… So I made a little research and looked for the first entries of my favorite bloggers. And? – Nothing! It seems that almost nobody has said it out loud – “this is my first post ever”. Bloggers tend to just write something about anything as if they’ve done this from the day before the day internet was invented…
This made me think a little about it. What is the reason for it? I guess that we just don't like to be the new kid on the block. That is way we hate the first day of school, or the first day at a new workplace. So we try to avoid it.
Well, I'm going to say it - yes, this is my first post at a blog of my own. Yes, I’m the new girl in the blogging neighborhood and that excites me! :)
I hope that with time, you'll find this blog interesting and beneficial in some way.
Enjoy,
