The Digital Revolution

Throughout my school life, phones offered one significant benefit: a means of communication, via either text or call. Typing out a message, "back in the day," required quite the skill set, i.e., understanding the code of the numbered buttons. Three taps on the number 6, for example, would produce the letter "o." Phones were a means of con-venience, but barely a means of life. Fast forward to 2020 and board a train in pretty much any city in the world, there will be one accessory nearly every passenger on-board will be holding, clasping onto even, watching, or tapping: their mobile phone.
