Abstract

Once upon a time checking the weather meant looking out of the window. Now we look at our phones. We bank online, plan holidays online, send our holiday snaps to friends while we are still on holiday using Facebook and WhatsApp and the shop of choice for well, just about anything, is the internet. Can’t find it locally? No worry—go online. Digital is the new black.
