I don't know about you, but I still get a weird feeling when I see a person walking down the street talking or singing to themselves.  Then I get a little closer and realize that they aren't crazy, they are just cell phone savvy.  

Today I want to talk about headphones: A simple concept, but these gadgets have a lot to offer. 

Have you ever been on a busy street with the phone pressed to your ear and a finger plugging the other.  You quickly find yourself becoming "that" guy/gal who is yelling "What? What was that? I can't hear you!"  

There is a solution.  Here's the top reasons why cell phone headphones are awesome.  

Headphones/sets allow you to:

-Take your phone calls on the go

-Free up you hands and allow yourself to multitask

-Hear what your caller is actually saying, with clarity

-Be heard by those on the receiving end of your call

-Listen to music on your smartphone while never missing a call

-If your place of work doesn't allow streaming of music, you can use headphones to listen to music on your phone via cool apps like Pandora. 

Do you use a headset for calls?
