Heres One [VIDEO] For The Old Timers
 

Can you believe its been 10 years!

I rather enjoyed that!

Kind of catchy. If you watch some of what they showed, hadn't come out yet 10 years ago, but we are totally trending these features now.

Virtual martinis! Look at the game play with all the virtual happenings.
The 3D experience ... another wow!

A real old timer would be someone that saw the actual premier of Mtv when it first played Video killed the Radio star.


















Yes, I watched it :pimp

:2 cents: The truth be spoken

The truth is the Internet has impacted us in ways we still haven't noticed yet.

I remember being a kid and having a set of encyclopedias and going to the library for research. Now kids do this from their computers and they'll never know what it was like not having the Internet and not having text messages.

It's forever changed the entertainment industry - much like Cable tv did.

nice! thanks for posting that, it is good food for thought actually, how much has changed in 10 years

and the ending was quite profound too, as more and more people live more and more of their lives online, your actual surroundings become more and more irrelevant compared to what is being provided directly to your brain from the computer screen :2 cents: :thumbsup

even that is evolving rapidly, now people consult that encyclopedia information from their cellphones while having an argument with their buddies in the bar

imagine if someday in the future they start to interface directly to our brains, where all you have to do is think a question and the answers will go directly into your mind. it might not happen in our lifetime, but at the rate of technological advancement it doesn't really seem that far off

Yep. A friend of mine and I were talking about this the other day. He has a 16 year old and a 14 year old. They have never not had cable TV or internet access. From the time they were old enough they have had cell phones. They have their own computers not to mention Ipods, x-box etc. He was laughing because a while back the power went out so they broke out a board game and the kids looked at him like he just pulled out an antique. I remember houses that had 1, maybe 2 phones that everyone shared and 8 channels on the TV. Cable wasn't even available to buy in the area I lived in when I was in high school. there were two kids that had cable and MTV and they would record the videos and bring the tapes to school. We would use a TV from the video room and watch the music videos during lunch.

How the times have changed in not that long of time period.

For that matter, right after high school I got a job at Radio Shack. I remember selling cell phones there (this was 1989,1990) and the phones were $1200-$1600 and were huge. The air time cost about 75cents per minute for every minute you used and the service area was pretty small. Now the phones are free, they do more than the computers that were in the schools when I was in high school and the service is pretty cheap comparatively and you get coverage everywhere.
