From the day
Perspective: The Future Historian · Sound
The rhythmic *ella-ella-eh* of Rihanna’s "Umbrella" spills from every open storefront, competing with the frantic clacking of keys as the tech world reels from Yahoo’s leadership shakeup. I watch a total newbie fumbling with a physical keypad nearby, blissfully unaware that the landscape is shifting beneath their feet. The air vibrates with the hum of impending change, a digital dawn whispered through the fevered hype of the iPhone’s upcoming launch and the quiet, looming promises of Kindle and Android. It sounds like the grinding gears of a legacy dying to make room for the touchscreen revolution.
