The future of media?
 
The future of our media?

Nope. Maybe I'm just a cynical bugger but I've never had much faith in technology to make such vast sweeping changes. It will go wrong (particularly if Microsoft is in any way involved http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif) and I really, really don't like the idea of any company trying to personalise what I read. How many things you wouldn't of normally read or even looked at have been great reads?

Still someone put a bit of effort into that and bits of it may happen. I particularly liked the name Googlezon. Made me smile.

Everything up to 2005 has happened for real. There already exist personalized information services on the Net.

Did your smile look like the Googlezon smile icon below the name? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Apparently the future of media is broadband. That was almost unwatchable on dialup.

The joy of Flash. Never make a small efficient file when you could make it vast and bloated. The so called 'Microsoft Approach' to software design.
