The buzz topic on everyone's mind these last two days has been the future of web and television; with the anticipation of the Internet-enhanced Google TV, it's becoming clear that the future seems to be integrating the two worlds.
From the Internet-enhanced Google TV to live interactive inaugural updates through Twitter and Facebook, one thing is certain: there's about to be a huge shift in viewing entertainment.
Implications - Technological devices are becoming more and more multi-capable as the drive towards simplicity, speed and convenience continues to drive consumerism. Phone-camera hybrids, portable televisions and devices with mobile web-surfing capacities are just a few examples of technological innovations with a rapidly growing market as a result of our tech-infused world.
