Bell

What’s next? It started with AIM chat, it evolved to blogging, it’s morphed into Twitter and we now have 20 hours of video being uploaded to YouTube every minute.

Our fascination with the human condition continues to evolve along with technology focused solely on expressive capability. Think about that.

So I ask you, what is next? Social Media as you know it right now, will not be recognizable in the next 3-5 years. Think long term.
