With the advent of new technologies, everything is getting smaller, faster, and more mobile. Information and services can be received wherever you are. This process is also much faster now than it was ten years ago.

The need to speed up information and communication has given way to new versions of cell phones, laptops, touchpads, and more.

Now we ask this question: what will happen with landlines in the future?

To give you a clear answer, it will disappear if the landline companies do nothing.

In the era we live in, there are much better alternatives than using a phone.

A landline phone is generally used to communicate with someone or something. Whether someone or something could be a relative, friend, or an automated voice program from a business, you can use it to order pizza or to access customer service from your cable operator.

It is mainly used as a communication tool. It is the strength of the landline phone, and it is also the weakness of the landline phone. The landline is only used for communication and nothing else.

In the era we live in, all the services of a landline can also be appreciated in other alternatives such as mobile phones, the Internet, and touchpads.

But unlike landline phones, these other alternatives also have other functions that a landline cannot offer.

Take the example of cell phones. In addition to giving you the convenience of communication, it also offers you the convenience of mobility. Nowadays, cell phones also give you the ability to have Internet access everywhere.

The Internet is also a threat to landlines in the future. With the introduction of Facebook and other social networking sites, communication with loved ones is generally done on the Internet.

Communicating on the Internet is comparatively cheaper and faster than that of a landline phone. It also gives you the opportunity to see who you really correspond with through video conferencing.

And with the advent of laptops and touchpads, the benefits of having a desktop computer can now be experience even if you’re in a park as long as it’s a wifi hot zone.

But nowadays, it is rare to find a place that is not a wifi hot zone.

Everything is mobile, faster and cheaper now. Landline phones still remained to be the stationary communicating tool in households and offices. There may still be a few people who use landline phones. But if landline companies fail to adapt to the fast-paced era in which we live today, landline will indeed fall in the future.
