Definition: digital life is the human-computer interactive experience. It is integrated digital world (information & service) and physical world (people and physical objects)

We are living in a digital era, where most of our activities on daily basis are involved with technology. We start the day with the sound of the alarm goes off. We travel with the help of GPS. There is even a device that counts how many steps we walk a day. There are many more activities in our daily life that technology plays a huge part in it.

This is the year 2016 and yet many accomplishments and innovations in the advanced of technology that makes our life so much different than decades ago. Starting when the first mobile phone was invented in 1973 and now we are carrying smartphones with 4G or LTE, that combines all functions of an mp3 and a camera. Technology in digital era makes our life so much easier with Google, YouTube, Wikipedia, etc., where we can find almost everything we want to know in seconds. In the past few years, many changes have been created in order to make technology better and smarter. So the question here is, what will our digital life be in the future?

Pew Research Center has an article “Digital Life in 2025”, that considered all the possibilities of how technology will affect our life in 2025 and came out with 15 theses about our digital future. There are 8 possibilities that was characterized as being hopeful, 6 as concerned and the rest are neutral. Most of the hopeful theses are about the global spread of the Internet will help the world connected, improve personal health and education, make peaceful changes and creates more opportunities. Then the concerned possibilities arise with the problems of possible violence through the Internet, abuses and abusers will ‘evolve and scale’ and problems involve privacy and security. But the choice to make our digital future better or worse totally depends on us, the users. We can choose a better future for our digital life  by making  efforts to make it better. It’s all up to us, the modern people of digital life.

So to answer the question what will our digital life be in the future, I have complete faith and confidence to say that we can create a brighter and better future by keep innovating and improving.
