Smartphone technology has made people less bound by location, but it has also enabled us to become more connected based on where in the world we are. As personal technology continues to evolve, it’s likely that personal GPS will become even more ingrained in our social lives and communities.

This project examines the history, uses, implications and future of personal GPS technology. It was produced by Elizabeth Hunter, Corey Murata, Andrea Sherrodd, Amy Rainey and Amy Rolph for an Evolution of Digital Media class in the University of Washington’s Master of Communication in Digital Media program.
