The cool phone
The people around me seem to slowly join the cult of the charismatic iPhone.
People buy it just because everybody else seems to think it's cool. In owning the gadget, they rightfully strive to maximise its functions. They are put in the position to learn more about the phone and what it can do. Then they hear of the universe of applications that add convenience or entertainment to their lives. Those who were previously not so Internet-savvy start with getting friends to install the apps. They move on to hearing about apps and then independently installing them. We soon find them reading up on and independently installing their newfound discoveries. The result is increased confidence levels in using the Internet, which is really the start of the discovery of the entire virtual world.
The iPhone has indeed done it's part for Internet literacy.
