 * What digital innovation do you feel best deserves the title revolutionary and why?**

I believe that the smart phone (after 2000) is the digital innovation that I feel deserves the title of revolutionary. Before smart phones, cellular phones had very limited capabilities such as calling and texting. At the same time DPAs served the role smart phones do now except without the functions of calling, for example. Today, companies such as Samsung, HTC, and Apple are developing top of the line smart phones with new and innovative technologies such as 3D cameras or semantic capabilities. I will make a quick list of the most notable changes since the merging of cell phones and DPAs bellow after 2000.

The smart phone has now become a commodity that not many are willing to give up. As technologies become cheaper and more accessible in Canada, I believe that the smart phone will become a common phone, as it almost is now. Here is a video you might enjoy.
