I was thinking about the state of the Internet as of late… it seems to me that it has become a shoddy marketing medium. Honestly, it reminds me of an old, stinky, dark alley. Most of the excitement and innovation has gone. Replaced by adwords, banner ads, and traffic squatters..

Google seems to be one of the only sites that continues to get people excited. Other “leaders” are just following it’s wake… And that’s sad that a search engine (aka – marketing machine) can get people so damn excited…

Pretty soon, we’ll need Tivo for the web, so that we can catch information that doesn’t really matter anyway… wait, that’s called RSS.

Think about it… there hasn’t been any significant changes to the web since vector graphics became mainstream. It’s still the same boring places to visit. Yeah there is new information… and now everyone’s voice can be heard through blogs or podcasts. whoopidy do.. Maybe people lack creativity to come up with exciting applications, or maybe certain companies (MS, IBM, Apple, etc) are squandering innovation… they buy up innovative companies and in the end, slow progress… I know that it’s capitalism, but at the same time, I would think that some of the founders would want to re-live the excitement that they had when they were creating their world…
