What is there to review? We are living in strange times where the digital stuff just does not exist unless it is consumed in the present. I have loving emails written to me in pen and email. I read neither yet for some reason the penned documents are held onto with an emotional tie. My father, who use to painstakingly capture photos, create slide shows using a rotating projector, laments the days where people would review photos as a time of bonding. That no longer exists and now, even with 500x more photos I still long for the days of having the context of a few photos that are forever lost. GPS and timestamps are helpful I guess but I will never know the reason for that captured moment.
