FaceBook
Myspace had its day, and now it seems to be facebook's turn. I was wondering how many people are actually on there?.
i'm here : http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=731207638
if anyone want to add me, just leave a message with your "scene name".
i've also noticed lots of c64 related groups on there but no c64 applications?, who knows maybe if some of us join some one will create a c64 application even if its only a little sidplayer jukebox sort of thing. |

Nonsense, the hype about Facebook will pass by like any other and people will turn to other new "amazing" things.
And e-mail (I mean REAL ones with monkey tail) will never cease.
Look at eBay, it's quite out nowadays. Anybody remembers Napster, Netscape or those 2.0 interactive 3D worlds? Nobody cares two hoots about them in 2011.
And if people are that stupid to give their e-mail passwords to other companies, they are hopeless cases anyhow, sorry. |

Rough: I don't say it will survive, but it has the biggest chance. It's totally mainstream. It doesn't allow you to customize the system so it de-facto becomes standard for everyone (as are phones, tv's etc.). Don't need to say much arguments. Simply it's as mainstream and primitive as it gets and that's most important for every thing to survive. If they won't overdo it, there is a big chance it will work for next tens of years. And that's enough for me to count with it in my plans around internet. |

You are right, it's so much mainstream to have a big chance of surviving and staying standard for decades, still I think the hype factor will decrease. In Fb you got to do more yourself than watching TV and that one remains the unbeatable number one in the race of "how low can you go". ;) |

I was not referring to the actual content of the medium, but the way it provides content, no matter what quality that is; and television is unbeatable. Just lean back and turn off.
Radio would be even better, but that obviously doesn't catch the user's full range of senses and forces too much self-activity on the listener. (Nobody likes staring constantly at a white wall while listening to the radio.. I guess) |

It seems like we all suffers from the great disease called "Digitalis". All to often I turn back to the world we call "Analogue" ;) |
