If it turns out to be chat room 2.0, I'm going back to blackboard and chalk =P What I WOULD like from Google is the possibility to be logged on to my private Gmail and Blogger, at the same time as I'm logged on to my AdWords Professionals account.... Seems like it's a though one ;-) Good, I just don’t know what to hope for…or fear… If it turns out to be chat room 2.0, I’m going back to blackboard and chalk =P

Or at least I hope. I'm still a fair way away from 30 (as a point of illustration) and I still don't get why we'd use it. I haven't seen the video yet, but from what I have read so far, they want to mix up all different communication media. What they forgot is: -when I watch a movie I don't listen to what you say. -when I read a book, I'm ignoring the radio -when I'm busy listening to music, I probably don't realize where I'm walking We can't function on multiple input. It might look snazzy, but to communicate efficiently we need to separate out the inputs into meaningful, coherent interactions. FaceBook tried mixing their inputs into one big output (combingin the wall, the feed and the apps notifications) and that was just butt ugly. Google Wave is Chat Room 2.0 But for meaningful communication - I think we're still fine where we are. And for the record: the Romans, too, used keys and locks. It has persisted because it's adapted for the task. Same goes for email and message boards. No, you’re not too old to get it. Or at least I hope.
