As a practicing digital anthropologist, this chart still fascinates me.

We all know that the iPhone changed how people live, work, and shop. It also affected gum sales. 📱

Supermarket checkout lines were strategically stocked with gum, candy, and magazines to capture shopper attention as they waited to pay. With an iPhone, customers were focused on their screen instead.⁠

Scenario planning helps businesses consider likely effects of emergent trends and shifts. This one would have been interesting to have tracked ahead of disruption.

Malak & Sons’ coconut gelato made my Bluesfest volunteer shift even better🍦 @ottawabluesfest And Beachconers’ lime basil concoction offsets any exercise benefit from biking to Britannia Beach 🤷‍♀️

Day 2 of #RBCBluesfest2022 brought an incredible night of music, more beautiful weather, and a ton of fun! Some minor connectivity issues didn't stop Ottawa from coming out to LeBreton Flats tonight to enjoy Jack Johnson, Tash Sultana, The New Pornographers, and many more!
