ABSTRACT

We live in an era of remarkable change brought about by the pervasive use of new technologies. Our laptops, phones, and tablets help us extend and communicate with our social network through text, voice, and video; entertain ourselves and others; and manage our daily errands. For many of us, network-enabled digital devices are part of the fabric of our lives, and memories of life before the internet, mobile phones, and smart devices are either fading away or never existed.
