HYPERMEDIA ....inside the matrix...and your living room....check out www.headplay.com which is set to launch in January...one example of creating a big screen environment for immersive gaming/training etc.

WEARABLES -- search for content /experiences....

WEARABLES and immersive environments-- soon the glasses will be gone-- Nintendo's WII and XBox's Camera and others promise -- new immersive systems that put YOU in the game.

  VIRTUAL CONFERENCE TABLE...immersive environments and tele-immersion make search and discovery transparent in the workspace. Click on JPEG or see previous post Hollywood2020.blogs.com

SCREENS2GO -- pull-out screens not unlike ones you've seen in MINORITY REPORT movie-- will be available soon. Search and discovery become easier when you have a screen everywhere & anytime.

AUGMENTED REALITY -- RFID and other click to see systems will allow augmented text via a click to help with search, directions and more...already being used in museums and public spaces like the Time Square Billboards that promo via mobile phone SMS (text-messaging).

VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENTS -- link offline and online content-- such as simulated scenes from movies and TV online and in virtual worlds...click on JPEG for example of first level of search via online simulation.

GOOGLE CO-OP -- mash-ups/local search and customized search builds a bridge to the future for search and discover online and via mobile environments.

PERSONALIZED ICONS, BADGES & MORE add a 'me-only' advantage to search and discovery for user-generated content-- not unlike Watermarking-- MIKONS.com enable worldwide attention for your content & collections....see the new Mikon for this blog Hollywood2020.blogs.com.
