How Will Santa Survive In The Digital World? tvdmexonline.com /will-santa-survive/ TVD
Will Santa survive the most aggressive attack since his creation? He is the world’s most recognizable fictional character, but will Santa survive the change we are facing right now? Everything is becoming digital, even Christmas. Red costume, ruddy cheeks, white beard, cheery voice and an all over charm, no-one will move these attributes from our loved Santa.
