Notes de l'éditeur
Reed Hastings asked the same question over at Netflix. Is DVD shipping dead?
Mark Twain: The reports of my death are great exaggerated.. But let’s be honest and acknowledge that the patient is ill and dying.

Someone else will have disrupted him by then. So, if we see promise in this kid, we need to step up to the plate now.
And we need to pursue that promise. Invest in it! Only take away here is that it’s going to be huge. If this comes true, in 2015 there will be as many shipments of tablets as there are PCs now. Let’s take it with a grain of salt. Sell thru is very different from iOS to Android. Think iPod vs. iPhone vs. iPad. Who wins? Also, the number for Microsoft seems very conservative.
Mike McCue: biggest daily peak: 8pm-11pm and on weekends. The second biggest daily spike, he said, is over breakfast.
The web is dead (Wired): Check email on your ipad, browse facebook, twitter, New York Times, Craving this finite experience. Chris Anderson: As much as we love the open, unfettered Web, we’re abandoning it for simpler, sleeker services that just work. Why/How:
Joint venture between OCR and FI. This project from start to now has only been possible because of the work of so many people.
