Connectivity Changing -- Is Email Archaic ??


Taken from Mary Meeker Economy & Internet Trends Dec/19/2008.

Seems:

Someday people might not solely use email-interface to do work and exchange information around, instead they'll use something that makes managing task, work and information simpler, easier, better -- something that feels & look like a 'facebook' perhaps, rather than the current traditional Outlook look. 

I guess this is what truly ment when we heard the words saying: 'People eventually chooses facebook style of sharing and managing information instead of outlook'  ...

Imagining & 'understanding' how such transition could/would ever happen sometimes is probably very similarly and very surprisingly 'as heavy as' people wondering 10-15 years ago whether 'they would ever switch to email interface (to do work & exchange information) -- because during those time their physical in/out tray on their desk still looks awesomely powerful. 

We'll see how the future goes. :-)

Oh, Get Over It Mr. Ball**er ... :-(

Oh get over it Mr Ball***er .. What's all these "I'm a PC Gear" stuff really mean if what Microsoft deliver (during your reign) is a consistent stream of lame, boring, so-so, photo-copying, 'dinosauric' innovation and product ??
Real innovation work, real consistent groundbreaking design and product; that's what matter the most; not these "ad vs ad", "claim vs claim" on top of (your) recent lame products.
I am proud of Microsoft in the past. Bill Gates really needs to be back.
