No doubt that mobile phones have become a part and parcel of our life style and life has become so much more easier because of the connectivity it provides .However ,some people can be highly irritating with the way they use their mobile phones.I feel that we should follow certain etiquette while using our mobile phone in a public place ...

I rarely go for high school gathering nowadays
we dont really chat
everyone has their cell on their hand
its really annoying
sometimes when someone opened a topic
while you are actually commenting on it
u noticed that no one really listen and they are looking at their cell's screen instead of looking at you
Luckily I still have other friends who hate the trend
and we never touch our cells when we are chatting


That is true. People seems to have lost the courtesy of paying attention when somebody is saying something. Either they are busy texting or playing games :evil:


Hi jabeen I like how you phrase your sentence
I am new to this forum and my english is below average standard
glad to have found this amazing forum where people share thoughts and they do not quarrel over stupid things like the forums I normally go
I shall come back everyday and chat with everyone to improve my english

If I was you and I was to comment on this,I would actually type "its true, it is rude and no manners to text or play games while others are saying something"

instead of "People seems to have lost the courtesy of paying attention when somebody is saying something. Either they are busy texting or playing games"

now I see the level gap
hope I will be able to advance my english to another level thru this forum :laugh:


Todd, that's such a very sweet thing to say, Jabeen indeed has very good English language skills although she is too modest to admit it. I also really like the fact that you are taking efforts to improve your own skills, although they are not as poor as you claim it to be. Hope to see you more on the forum and I am sure you will achieve both your purposes, improve and have fun here! :)

@ Todd
Thanks for your appreciation but to be honest I don't think I am good enough in English but can manage through. However there are other members in this forum who can express their views very beautifully, using very cultured language. In fact they post many interesting and informative post too. I am sure like me you will also enjoy interacting with them. I am glad that you have decided to be online everyday. We are also looking forward to your active participation in the forum


You are so humble Jabeen
Another thing I just noticed is that members in this forum do not use short form
They type "you" instead of "u"
I always made the mistake during exam and I think I shall start to correct it
I shall start to open new topics and bring in more discussions ;)

Most welcome Kalyani , you deserve it...as for me, I am trying to fit in here and learning new things from members like you and a few others who always have something interesting to add :)
Mobile are getting popular day by day.The use of it has increased a lot.In every peoples pocket we could see the mobile phone.Specially children attract towards it to play games.
Mobile is useful as very dangerous now a days as it is like a small bomb in our pockets.

Yes. It is a small bomb and we are spending lot and lot of money for mobile phones only. Money eating bomb.

That's true Sasikanth, constant use of mobile phones does lead to a lot of problems in people, especially risk of serious injuries to brain. So it is indeed equivalent to carrying a bomb in your pockets!!
As they say it for many other things too : Mobile is a necessary evil

LOL :laugh: , thats too funny ! In a way you are right,people have this habit of changing their hand set every year and go in for the latest model, some of them costing 20,000 and 30,000 rupees...

Yes, evil although it is necessary like so many other things! Actually they become evil because of their misuse in the hands of the user!

Add to that, the huge bills of actual calls made! At least for sending text messages, there are plans that are cheaper!
Mobile is very useful now a days but at the same time its not good to have mobile. :laugh:
The most important thing is that beside providing quality and quantity discussion
everyone here is so humble and the way they use the language is so beautiful :laugh:

Talking about telephone bills ...I was shocked to read that some of the politicians had outstanding bills accounting to a couple of crores each, no wonder that BSNL is a loss making concern,they should seriously think of privatising it..

Yes they get a certain amount, something like one or two lakh limit for Mps amd ministers and slightly less for MLAs, but even that doesnt seem to be enough...You can very well imagine what kind of sleazy activities they must be indulging in calling international numbers... :unsure: :angry:
