Ah, the holidays. Nothing screams nostalgia as loud as they do. Whether you recall sitting by the fire listening to Bing Crosby or putting up festive lights on the palm tree outside, we all have our favorite holiday memories.
But, that is a different memory than the one we’re about to create. Today’s world is the world of the iPad, the internet and artists like Lil’ Wayne and Daft Punk.
