There was a time not that many years ago when, for a while, the cell phone just might have failed but it has re-invented itself to become the most important of technological developments in the twentieth century.

Unfortunately, although it may be a good idea for youngsters to have them, not one of them would accept a simple basic cell phone that only made calls and sent SMS would they? Although the increase in cell phone popularity may not have been expected to reach such a high level, the manufacturers have improved the cell phone enormously in a very short space of time.

It is the number of functions that can be added to the cell-phone that puts it ahead of its landline based cousin. To make them a little more individual, new features like backgrounds called cellular phone wallpaper have been added.

Now, changing your wallpaper couldn’t be easier with web sites set up just for this purpose. Not only can modern phones communicate between each other which makes transferring screen wallpaper a simple process but it can even be created and shared using the cell-phones digital camera. If you prefer you can use an image you have captured previously on your own digital camera but the set up can take a bit more time.

Cleverly, it is now possible to add your own text to your cellular phone wallpaper as well. Still, even if you have an older cell phone that does not support all this new technology, it does not mean you cannot enjoy your cell phone. Still, even if your model cannot accept new screen backgrounds, it may well accept ring tones which will give you that personal touch. However, if you only want to make calls and send SMS messages, then none of this will matter to you.

You must never forget what the cell-phone is actually for and remember that sending a SMS text does not need the most popular background or ring tone to help it on its way! Functionality does not necessitate cellular phone wallpapers; their use is only to dress up your phone and for the purpose of flaunting your cell-phones high technology features, nothing more.

Many people become angry by others use of phones so remember that you have a responsibility to others when you make a call. Your phone should complement you and not be an extension of yourself as it is you that people will decide whether or not has any social etiquette.

Turning off your phone when you are in a restaurant or library for example, shows respect for those that are also there. You may even get the respect from other users if you respect them they will not use their phone without thinking in situations that may annoy you. In an age where people think about how they look to others a great deal, it is surprising that this has not improved cell phone etiquette but this means that you can do something to change the situation.
