I'm dreaming of a WI-FI CHRISTMAS

Christmas isn’t like it used to be: It’s a common gripe from older relatives as they peer into elegant gift bags and lavish lump-free gravy over al dente sprouts. But in the last decade or so, they’ve been right – and it’s not gravy strainers that are the issue, but technology.

In some ways, tech has changed Christmas for the better – being able to check the defrost time for a 3 kg turkey online has saved many a trip to an emergency room with food poisoning. LEDs on the tree are better for the planet and twinkle just as easily as the flickering, faulty Christmas lights of yesteryear.
