Santa meets modern tech
My nephew still believes in Santa, and he thinks this mysterious figure is one of the most awesome dudes around.
My sister is doing everything she can to keep that dream alive. She sneaks into his room and rearranges things, pours flour outside his door to make tiny footsteps, puts out a bowl of porridge and makes sure Santa has suddenly eaten it, and leaves small gifts here and there.
There are traces everywhere, but the secret Santa is nowhere to be seen. It's a mystery, and it makes my nephew a bit frustrated. He wants to meet him, or at least catch a glimpse.
So what do you do in the year 2025?
His solution is as genius as it is obvious if you are born into these tech times. A motion-activated camera. This year, the secret Santa Claus fellow won’t stay a mystery for long.
I don’t know how my sister will work it out. All I know is that even Santa is having a hard time surviving in the digital age.
