Digitaltopia to rise from the Ashes?
Well to any small amount of faithful readers I have lurking about the dark and dumpy halls of this never really developed website, I saw salutations. I expect the free cheese tray is long gone and by know you have been forced into calibration, or are giving real debate to eating that fruit cake my aunt sent around Christmas time. I've checked in on the site nearly one a month over the last few years and thought that I really need to do something with it. I think I could carve a nice nitch for myself here online if I can force myself ot put the needed time and effort into it. I still notice one of my last haunting posts before dissipating dared to ask is 'Is New Orleans Totally Fucked'. In hindsight if some lazy partially involed blogger could have seen coming one would think that the powers that be could had picked up on a few of those not so hidden clues. . Since my last post the word has changed endlessly and also strayed very much the same. The wheel turns season roll buy but Bush still run the show. iphones are nearly hotter commodity then crack rock. The housing market, and a bridge in Minneapolis have come crashing down. A point less war wages on with little hope for quick end in site. Google has emerged as the behemoth we all suspected it might, but can it handle great power and responsibility with turning to he ways of the dart side.
Fire Sharing lives on and healthy. It morphs and changes hides and move, while still growing. Bit Torrent has emerged as the biggest and most tricky beat to cut down so far, even as major players and for runners to the torrent scene jump ship to join up with hollywoods army. The open ,source, private trading clubs seem to be not just ready but even eager to move onto the next state of the battle field. So far in the war of those who defend freedom of information, and those copy holders who want to own the property intelligence rights of works by artist, many long dead, has seen many small scrimmages and a few large battles. Its insurgent warriors using gorilla fighting a Massive of touch army of think police.. That army maybe able to win a few public battles but the War is slowing turning against them. Most see it coming.
The Face of TV is changing forever. Fairly soon we will see a vast shit in power towards the hands of the creators and consumerisms away from the studios. No more long season breaks for good shows.. Hell I dream of future where I can get a whole season of my favorite show off iTunes or DVD unedited shoot as they are mean to be seen They at some laster point the network can buy the rights to show the series on TV edited and broken up as they feel. The balances are shifting.
These are just a few of the type of this I'll be trying to touch base on or maybe just plain rant about in the coming weeks. I would really like to have this site go through some major changes soon. So if all goes well feel free to drop by and give me any feed back or idea.
So Who knows where I'll go with my no blog, blog look forward to book, and film reviews, guest writers, photograph sections, political rants, maybe even some works of fiction... who knows!
