Minnesota, USA -October 21, 2011 - According to Comscore, who specializes in measuring the digital world, 55% of cell phone users access their social content on their phones at least on a daily basis; the activity from this time last year was dramatically less, which indicates that our cell phone usage and social networking habits are increasing by the day. A large portion of users access applications in order to post status updates, upload photos, and other various sharing activities; this will likely lead to new apps coming out and the demand for 'better' and more 'social' friendly applications to release as well. Indeed, we are 'social', and our habits are easily seen by this latest data.

Even though people seem anxious about privacy when it comes to their online habits, it is less of an issue when it comes to the mobile device; social networks and mobile app providers still can access the same information -it is simply connected to a number in addition to all the other information on the accounts. On top of this, rumors are circulating that Facebook is attempting to make pages for those who do not sign up for the service -basically, it wants to create a profile of everyone. Just like any internet company, Facebook wants to get to know its consumers and other sites' consumers in order to develop ways to compete even more.
The debates on privacy and the capabilities that companies have when it comes to accessing this information through technology will likely be common conversation in the future; especially when the 'super smartphones' finally debut -we are eagerly waiting for this remarkable transformation!
