The Next New Thing

 The transition of information processing from individual processing to computerized processing and the transition of information storage from drawers and filing cabinets to hard drives and server rooms led to the facilitate storing and processing information on the Exabyte level. This combined with the increase in accessibility of that information by a larger group of users, now that that information is available across the network rather than in a single physical localized area, raises the question worth pondering is their really gonna be a new type of media in the future? Its much more difficult to think about what is "the next best thing" as samsungs modo would say. I believe the next new best media would be another social networking site where the user interface is much more simplified than facebooks and or twitter. It would be ad-less where the consumer can focus more on their friends and family whereas, looking at ads that are correlated to their search history.
