After looking at the use of technology in Columbus, and comparing it to other cities, such as Atlanta or Chicago, one realizes that Columbus is still evolving digital-wise. Where some cities have large television screens attached to the tops of buildings, Columbus still makes use of billboards or other display signs. This does not mean Columbus is bare in technology, however. The small downtown area is filled with shops and restaurants that offer customers WiFi access. Therefore, the sight of people, both young and old, on devices like smartphones, laptops, or iPads is very common. Furthermore, the Columbus school systems are also beginning to take a turn to the digital age. While some schools still make use of regular chalkboards and dry-erase boards, others in Columbus, and the outer towns as well, are using contraptions known as smart-boards. Unlike the two previously mentioned classroom regulars, smart-boards are completely electronic and can operate like a computer. Even the accompanying markers and eraser are electronic, making the process of lecturing for teachers more interesting. These are only some of the many ways the small city of Columbus, Georgia is evolving and developing into a city of the digital age. And, although they are rather small changes, one cannot help but wonder what new developments are in store.
