It was interesting to see the video responses to this. Basically proving your point. I watched Paul @ The Experiate Channel and Amber, both who had value to add to the original post which of course made it an interesting conversation. Spot on Chris. Thanks.

Chris you are quite right...being a multi-specialist and having been following the wave of new media, I have seen the potential of everything becoming super interaction also in bits.

I'm left to wonder and possibly develop ways in which other industries utilize media and technology. For instance, how could the future of media (and what you predict) effectively benefit health care. From both the provider and patient perspectives, information could flow more quickly and effectively for example. Pt teaching could be on Demand and interactive
