I really foresee a wide application for Internet browsers
which is to become the synthesis for tv, phone, computer.
Instead of tubing out on the couch imagine staying online.
If you want to watch/listen to broadcasted video/audio click here.
If you want to chat with a friend click there.
Then ofcourse there are all the other fun activities
of software manipulation which the computer provides.

the revitalization of utopian ideals reminiscent
of the early stages of video are very exhilarating.

As an art form.... these are really exciting times
the possibilities seem endless. web sites which can
host a multitude of media. surfing through billions
of data bits of information. multi-way interaction
with installations... so much to do so little time.
