Interesting Time magazine edition

November 17, 2005 sonjab Future Trends, General, Media tidbits No Comments

Time logo I just received my copy of the 14 November 2005 edition of Time magazine, and I must say it is one of the most interesting editions I’ve seen in a while. The theme is ‘What’s next’ and it contains several interesting articles concerning the future of the web and the increasing importance of being connected (there are some cool gadgets as well).

I especially liked ‘Place your bets’ on page 48 which is essentially about the Wisdom of Crowds as well as ‘Messengers of Cool’ on page 56 which is about a network of international trend spotters.

Gen Y are not a pushover

Gen Y are not a pushover

Miranda Devine is a Sydney Morning Herald columnist, and recently wrote an excellent piece on Australia’s Gen Y (young people now in the teens and early 20s). She had just witnessed a group of 400 of them grilling Kevin Rudd, the Aussie PM – and they had given him a rough time.
It’s well worth [...]

The Internet? Bah!

The Internet? Bah!

Many years ago, in a South Africa finding it’s way to it’s first democratic election, a friend of mine would often say, “Don’t be a victim of your own words.” He of course was referring to saying things that might come back and bite you down the road. And in an emerging ‘New South Africa’, lots of people [...]
