What the Web Will Look Like in 5 Years

In this article Google CEO Eric Schmidt describes how the internet will drastically change in the next five years. He begins by saying that the future internet will be dominated by Chinese-Language content. That todays teenagers model how the web will look like five years from now. He states that "Were starting to make significant money off of youtube." So we can expect even more video content on the web. Also, in five years there will be broadband well above 100MB in preformance.
I'm not really shocked by anything that Eric had to say. China has the highest population of any country in the world. It was only a matter of time before they had taken over the internet. And when it comes to the videos, of couse they would polute the web with more senless content just so they could make a few bucks. I agree with all of Mr. Schmidt's predictions.

Daft Punk- Technologic

The video starts with a small baby-like robot sitting in front of a television in a complete orange area. As he watches, words quickly flash on the TV screen and the robot says them aloud. The camera then zooms in on the robots face while he says the words on the television screen. Then the camera zooms out and two guitar bearing people appear. Soon after there are random shots of the area shown in quick bursts. In the end of the video the robot sees himself on the TV screen and approaches it.
The use of the robot was different and interesting, but still creepy.The all orange backround gave the video some energy.

Adobe Ipod app

Adobe recently introduced a mobile photoshop for ipod application. The photoshop app allows consumers to conveiently edit photos, apply effects, and share images instantly with friends. The application is available free of charge at Apple's app store. Photoshop Mobile for iPhone provides a fun, seamless experience to view photos with full-screen previews and edit images with gesture-based editing. Consumers can transform their photos with essential edits like crop, rotate and flip. Users can play with colour by adjusting the saturation and tint, enhancing the exposure and vibrancy and converting images to black and white. I think that its amazing that we have come so far that we are able to use photoshop on our ipods. What makes it even more amazing is that its free on the iphone whereas you must pay for the Adobe program on your PC.

At The End of Young Street

In the video "At The End of Young Street" a man attempts to walk down Young street, which some say is the longest street in the world, while getting his picture taken every so often. After several days and hundreds of thousands of pictures later, the man arrives at the end of Young street. With a triumphant pump of his fist the man ends his journy and the video goes to credits. The camera man uses multiple photos rather than recording on a video camera to create a different sense of movement than that of a camera. I thought that the photos also created a time laps effect. The multiple photos seemed grab my attention better a regular video recording would have. That is probably why I enjoyed the video so much.

Tv violence

The article I read about increasingly violent television briefly states that every year more and more violence seems to make its way onto our TV screens without us even knowing. Some people, mostly parents, believe that gradually increasing ones exposier to violence will make all forms of abuse seem less and less intense, causing children watching these shows to become more violent towards others. Others believe that it is the parents responsibility to monitor the childs television watch thereby prohibiting the exposier to violence. I seem to find my self opposing the parents oppion. It is the parents duty to prevent their children from watching these shows, not the networks.
