The future of blogging

this video raises the following debates:-
  • Google chooses and presents the news by using a computer. Moral debate?
  • copyright? who would be responsible?
  • this could lead to custom content packages. this means your actions on the Internet are monitored and you would be provided with news which the computer feels you are most interested in. this would mean that if you use the Internet regularly and look at many different subject areas then you will be provided with a good spectrum of news. however, many people only use the Internet occasionally and only for trivial needs. for example downloading music and talking to friends then you won't be provided with all events occurring in the world. even though these mite be important to you if you were informed of them.
