Jordan's Event
The invention of computers and phones have drastically changed our lives. For me, the phone has changed my life the most. We couldn't find my grandfather for sometime & after years of searching on our phones we found him in California. Now, we keep in touch by e-mail, texting, calling and using FaceTime. If it was not for phones we would have never found him and now have contact with him. It is much easier now, for my family and I to communicate with him through technology then anything else.
