The span of my hips,
The stride of my steps,
The curl of my lips,
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me. (excerpted from Phenomenal Woman, Maya Angelou)
In the explosion of the culture of the now, the experience of real time, the transition from the IBM mainframe to the immediacy of ghz modules of app technologies, there is a pendulum shift in the art of communication exchange. Our modus operandi is the rapture of instantaneous. Our life pulse is intravenously connected to the art of technology. The newest, latest and greatest information technology updates are our programmed reflexes.

With iPhones, and Androids, and iPads, and hand held devices at the disposal of babies to almost every adult exposed to telecommunications, the Information Age is feared as the era of less social interaction and more technical exchange.

The expletive WTF; What the F*ck?, to the courtesy TY ; Thank You, YW; Your Welcome, and the contrary LOL; Lots of Love or Laugh out Loud; depending on the extent of sentiment, are a sampling of the new age vocabulary
The ability to share words that solicit, invite, entertain, and educate is commanding unprecedented value for the talented communicators. In an extraordinary shift, the millennials who have pioneered and envisioned the virtual pageantry of social media technology, have now engineered the most expansive information sharing portals of interactive virtual exchange and potential global democracy.
The resurgence and renewed appeal of global communications have initiated a climate of Renaissance. The most fertile instruments of collaborations and conversations are refreshed and renewed through words.
