Newspapers+Business+Perspective

With technology booming in the United States between smart phones, laptops, tablets, and other forms of media, the Newspaper industry is taking a big hit. The internet provides every newspaper through the websites and you can get your daily newspaper fix through the internet. The day is coming where there will not be any more paper boys or waking up to the newspaper on your porch. I remember when I was younger waking up to my dad reading the newspaper every day, especially the business section and the Wall Street Journal, being that my father is a Stock Broker. Now when I am home I wake up to my dad on his laptop reading the Wall street Journal on their website. The newspaper industry is really becoming non existent in society but more specifically the business man's world.

The famous picture of men in suits walking on Wall Street with their Wall Street journal in hand is becoming an image of the past. Now it would be more realistic to see a man in a suit walking down Wall Street with an iPad in his hand. The technology of news in the business world has become so great that newspapers are needed for any part of a business mans life. The things that can be done on a tablet or smartphone or laptop are so much more advanced than laptops. The newspapers list the stocks for the business man but now that person can go on their laptop and look up the stock's information and look at charts showing how the stock should do in the future.



The technology will keep getting better as the years go on and the newspaper industry will soon diminish because of the increase in technology for the everyday business man. Business information can be found through so many more things other than the newspaper these days. Every iPhone and iPad has applications for these newspapers, like the video above. The video shows how to use the Wall Street Journal app for the iPad. You can get the Wall Street journal through an application on the iPad so there is not any need for a newspaper anymore. Not just the Wall Street journal every newspaper has online websites now where you can get all of your news. The internet and applications through smart phones and tablets also have apps that show the current stock market and many other business like activities. Technology is getting better and better while the newspaper industry remains the same and in my prediction in the next 5 to 10 years will be completely extinct.
