The Future of communication



This video seeks to examine where the future of the media will go, and offers up some of its own suggestions as to where we are headed over the next 50 years. It is interesting to watch and think about the theories that it raises on the future, as many of these are possible and will have a great impact on changing our world.

We all know that the media revolution with the introduction of the Internet has drastically altered the way in which we consume media, but when it supersedes everything, what then will change and become of the Internet?

An interesting point that was raised that shows how we as consumers have changed now is shown as they state "a new figure emerges...the prosumer. A producer and consumer of information. Anyone can be a prosumer."

As you watch the video, think about what the future will hold for media, the Internet and us as consumers, or as they state 'prosumers'.
