(Video) Prometeus - The Media Revolution: from 2.0 to 42?

Wow. I could not believe this video was made by 'CasallegioAssociati', the same people that run Beppe Grillo's blog. A provoking, (not really flawless) prediction of the future of media, surely interesting in so many aspects.

google buys WHAT?

google buys Microsoft?!? YEAA

very, very thought provoking. it just lacks a few terrorist attacks, blame on countries, more power to the usual decepts and less freedoms to the usual suspects, but that's just details on the long run.

no, seriously now - I'm still skeptic that everyone wants to be producer and consumer.. as the Jesuits say, when men is free to do whatever he wants, usually he mimicks others' (or more or less on this run)

ps: either I'm an ignorant, Fox-viewing average joe-six-pack bush-voter moron or the math captcha are wrong.. 1+0 equals 1, even in binary. better take a look at it.

I don't actually agree with the totalitarian view that everyone will become a producer. Very few people have the gift of sharing and presenting interesting information, but that doesn't change the fact that they could if they wanted to, given the context.

My guess is that there is either a bug on the captcha module or something wrong with the SQL server request... I've updated the modules to the last snapshot, I hope there should not be any more of these mathematical mysteries, I was starting to worry that 2+2=5, if you receive my meaning ~_^ ----- http://topdayitypedongoogle.wordpress.com

Interesting - yes, but not necessarily a prediction of the future. Some of it might happen, some not and some not exactly as portrayed. Predicting the future more than a few years hence has proven to be quite a difficult task. Where are the flying cars predicted in the 1930's or a world without wars after the "The war to end all wars" said in 1918?

The inventions or advances coming to us in the near and far future are only speculative and as history shows, the next new thing around the corner usually surprises all of us and was not predicted by anyone - except perhaps the person that invented it, and even then they are often surprised themselves.

Some of what was shown would need a radical shift in our ideas, life style and free enterprise way of thinking and conducting business. I for one would hope some of it would not occur at least in my lifetime. It almost seems like a Twilight Zone plot line of some future world with a quick camera pan over to Rod Serling for a short explanation of it being "...in the Twilight Zone."

Any such look forward must be taken with a grain of salt or humor or a real sense that our future is not set in stone and that anything can and will happen to throw it in a completely different direction that NO ONE ever anticipated. Good or bad, we are all on this speeding train called life with no train schedule or even track farther ahead of us other than what is just beneath us.

Enjoy the ride! (゚д゚)
