Mobile Number - The New Address

About 15 years back, having a cell phone was considered a luxury and times have changed a lot since. In todays date, the first thing that you ask a person is their mobile phone number. Think how ubiquitous this device has become and how much it has managed to pervade our lives. The day is not far away when, the mobile phone will become the only means of finding a person.

In recent instances I have heard of cops being able to pin point the location of a person using the signal of the cell phone. It has also been used to track the whereabouts of nefarious elements at times. The mobile is becoming the new address. Since the user carries along with them everywhere that they go, it has become a better way of keeping track of people than an address.

The mobile phone is becoming the new address, the day is not far when it would replace all other identifications.
