<p>Writers and pundits can't figure out what to call the first decade of the 21st Century. The New Yorker did a bit by Rebecca Mead on the failure to find a hook for this time - the Oughts never took off. The Millenials are people. It's a decade without a name...until now</p>
<p>I propose we refer to this period as the first totally Digital Decade.</p>
<p>It is the first decade of widespread internet use. It is the first complete decade in which I utilized digital photography from start to end. It is the decade that saw the end of analog TV broadcasts. It is the first complete decade of cell phones, email and social networks.</p>
<p>In a nutshell, it is <strong>The Digital Decade: 2000-2010.</strong> That's my vote. I challenge you to come up with something better.</p>]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://www.tobinrussell.com/definitions/rss-comments-entry-6908476.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>51.

Adding black and white effects? Extra shine on the surface of some glossy advertising copy? All that stuff we could do before Photoshop.</p>
<p>This leaves us the question: What is Photoshop really for?</p>
<p>"I'm pretty certain <a href="http://selleckwaterfallsandwich.tumblr.com/">Selleck Waterfall Sandwich</a> is the real reason Photoshop was created."</p>
