The thinking around the possibilities for user experiences and interfaces seems to be one of the most exciting things to me at the moment.  And here's some more quite brilliant thinking from BERG about how technology can revitalize magazines.

As you know, I'm a bit of a tech-groupie, however I wonder how much of this will happen because people buy the technology or because magazine publishers push it simply because they cannot afford to have as many journalists on staff and this is the more cost effective way to keep in business?

I don't agree with Murdoch - but his point that the quality and value of real journalism is being destroyed with the freedom of information is a valid one ... and it's not something I directly blame at Google [I wouldn't would I, ha!] but at societies need to have their inherent views & prejudices justified, thus seeking out only the information that backs up their views.

A friend of mine said something recently I love ... the brain is driven by fear, however if all we fill it with are views and opinions that back up what we already think/know, are we in danger of being less developed and intelligent than previous generations?

Google isn't making us stupid, our desire for an easy life is.

Have a top one matey ... see you next year.
