The life of a Prosumer in 2050 June 16th, 2007
Learn about your new role once Google takes over the world in 2050. I believe you will be the new "prosumer" a producer and consumer of information.
Davide Casaleggio sent a tip to Read/WriteWeb about a video his company produced exploring the future of media. It is a very cool 6-minute video, which takes some educated (and imaginative) guesses at how the Web and media will evolve over the next 40-50 years. In the short movie, Google, Amazon.com and Second Life are the big winners – with Google buying Microsoft, Amazon buying Yahoo, and Second Life becoming the dominant virtual world.
Of course the web might turn out differently, but this video gives you a new perspective to consider. I like the idea of "prosumer" — producing information and consuming information. Blogging has a great role to play in the future, taking over traditional newspapers and television stations. Worthy of a second look. Makes you think.
