| Perfect World quote:
In a dumb pipe world, AT&T or Verizon simply run the network and charge for bandwidth. Everything simply becomes data. With consumers picking the device, applications, IM platform, and calling mechanism of their choice over the network of their choice.
That sounds like a perfect world to me! I don't want the ISP's telling me what contect I can have access to (ESPN 360?). Unfortunately this perfect world will never happen.
Where's that DSLR pic Karl, the one that shows a glimpse of the internet's "craptastic" future? The one with a menu of ISP's and the portals/content you will have access to if you sign up with that ISP. I have been looking for that pic (but not very hard). |
