Internet-enabled mass juvenilia is our future. Some recent signs:
- At SXSW, where the tech hipsterati are gathered, audiences make fun of speakers live in chat rooms and on Twitter (story 1, story 2).
- "Digg users revolt" is a bit redundant. Mob rule is basically Digg's MO. So it's no surprise Digg users are doing their best to kill an acquisition.
- Forget laser pointers, personal portable projectors are the wave of future "visual pollution" (BBC, Engadget).
- Anonymous is a group of hackers organizing on-line and off to take down The Church of Scientology through various measures, legal, illegal, and juvenile.
