A new era dawns

Web 2.0 is going to transform our lives. We'll all be empowered, efficient and informed. A new era of democracy will dawn. 

Of course it will. 

Meanwhile, here's the Twitter feed for the new Star Trek film. Apparently some toys are on sale, you can play your part in fixing a poll (sorry, participate in a democratic consultation) and see some pictures. Doesn't that make everybody warm and fuzzy inside, empowered and informed? What do you mean, all new technologies are appropriated for the purpose of extending capitalist hegemony?

I, for one, welcome our Vulcan overlords. Actually, I am looking forward to the film.
