Mobile Devices in the Work Place

The use of mobile devices are used by members of the CMMA as seen when my group met with them last Tuesday. Right now the function as a convenient way to read and compose emails. While working on the floor cell phones are prohibited because they are a distraction and therefore a safety hazard. While not on the floor mobile devices like the iPhone and Android can be used to communicate with one and other via text or email. Once the CMMA adopts social media lets use facebook as an example, mobile devices could be used to update their page with pictures and news, read and answer comments, or even share links. The use of mobile devices for the CMMA's cause would only be needed by a select few of board members in charge of running the site and since phones aren't allowed on the floor everything listed above could be done as easy or easier from a desk top or laptop.
