The Future of Media

  • To the legions of media people in Kuwait still stuck in the pre-Internet age...
  • To the foolish ISP that recently blocked the blogs and underestimated the loud backlash..
  • To every short-sighted government official getting increasingly impatient with the growing volume of online criticism and dissent...

I present to you this fascinating 8-minute look into the future of media, and depending where you stand it's not all rosy!

visionary!

but I think it will happen before 2014.

Laws will be amended, because printed media (including NYT) will have more online content.

If you have noticed they started'Time Select' in 2005, and I think it will expand till it covers most of NYT (it's not free, though).

thanks for sharing.

PS: I think by 2014, Al-Anbaa will consider publishing online, due to the massive number of readers ;p
