DLD06: Wrap-up

I was in Munich yesterday and the day before at the Digital Lifestyle Days hosted by Hubert Burda and Yossi Vardi. An incomplete wrap-up in 12 points (some are mine, some were mentioned during the final session - more details are in the previous 16 posts):

  • The cost for creating and distributing content is tending towards zero.
  • Creativity and design are becoming more important than ever.
  • The consumer is increasingly in control ("consumer"? I mean: the individual).
  • If there is a next big thing, it's probably mobile social software.
  • If there is another NBT, it will likely come from Asia.
  • We all (will) have multiple personas: digital identities, avatars, profiles; the virtual world is increasingly "shadowing" the real world.
  • Web2.0 is about architectures of participation; Web3.0 will be about architectures of interaction.
  • Communication will increasingly be non-textual.
  • The "long tail" is making many forms of content possible that would not have found a market nor an audience in the past.
  • Europe should get rid of its American tech obsession and focus on the real competition coming from the East.
  • Search has transformed our relation to information, but in five years' time the very concept of a "search engine" will sound quaint.
  • When did Google become bad? When they quarantined a journalist last summer for pointing out obvious truths, and when Sergey and Larry said that them buying a big 767 airplane "can only be good for the world".
