"Smartphone Cultures explores emerging questions about the ways in which this mobile technology and its apps have been produced, represented, regulated and incorporated into everyday social practices, as the various authors in this volume each locate their contributions within the circuit of culture model. More specifically, this book engages with issues of production and regulation in the case of the electrical infrastructure supporting smartphones and the development of mobile social gambling apps. It examines issues of consumption through looking at parental practices relating to children's smartphone use, children's experience of the regulation of this technology, both in the home and in school, how they cope with the mass of communications via the smartphone and the nature of their attachment to the device. Other chapters cover the engagement of older people with smartphones, as well as how different cultural norms of sociability have a bearing on how the technology is consumed. The smartphone's implications for other theoretical frameworks is illustrated though examining ramifications for domestication, and the sometimes-limited place of smartphones in certain aspects of life is examined through its role in the practices of reading and writing. Smartphone Cultures presents the latest international research from scholars located in the UK, Europe, the US and Australia and will appeal to scholars and students of media and cultural studies, communication studies and sociologists with interests in technology and social practices."--Provided by publisher

Odontology does not escape this democratization, indeed photography has its place in the dental office. In this work we will see how to integrate a smartphone into a daily practice of dental photography.

L'odontologie n'échappe pas à cette démocratisation, en effet la photographie a complètement sa place au cabinet dentaire. Dans ce travail, nous allons voir comment intégrer un smartphone dans une pratique de la photographie dentaire au quotidien. Dans une première partie nous développerons la prise de vue avec un smartphone, dans la seconde nous verrons les différents accessoires pouvant s'adapter à notre pratique, puis dans la troisième nous parlerons de la post-production et du transfert des données.

If your smartphone has a GPS, your provider knows exactly where you are and where you have been as well as who you have contacted. In addition, tracking software which logs where you have been and what you did has been previously found on Apple's iPhone and just recently, Carrier IQ tracking software has been acknowledged to be on over 150 million smartphones. If this is combined with a recent government directive that no warrant is needed to access this information, then if you have a smartphone, you really have zero privacy.
