I chuckled as I read today’s USA Today cover story, “Could this finally be the season for Web TV?“.

The story quotes ABI Research saying that, “In 2014, consumers in North America will buy 45 million of these sets, representing 69% of all TV sales, ABI Research says. That’s up from 6 million and 14% of sales in 2009.”

I know for a lot of geeks have been leveraging such technology for quite sometime. For example, my good friends at Neuros Technology can attest to having created the Neuros LINK – an awesome device that connects you to the web for your own little jukebox of shows & movies. This came out over a year ago.

3 questions to each of you to think about & discuss with me here about this new technology:

  1. Do you want to integrate your Internet & TV experience?
  2. Won’t this mean we have to consider buying a new TV as often as a new laptop due to new features?
  3. Since Yahoo appears to be the big player with this TV technology, will this level the playing field at all vs. Google?

Looking forward to our conversation about this…thanks!

  • Should it be of any surprise that consumers think of themselves and their personal needs before the brand they’re buying from?! Not to me…

    I just read today’s SmartBrief on Social Media - if you haven’t subscribed to this newsletter, please do so ASAP – it’s great! Below is a link to my video response/reaction to a study that recently came out from The Razorfish Digital Brand Experience Report 2009.

    Take a look at the report yourself as I’d love your thoughts on the findings! Thanks!
