Tregartha Dinnie's Friday headlines from the week

We'll stay clear of discussing the low, low, low standards of the French press and their royal treatment.

Does intergrating digital technology change the state of play

When the digital revolution (whose end is not yet in sight) takes on a persona within everything we do, read, write, see and talk, can we envisage what the next revolution may be?

Does digital technology change how journalism and media is communicated to the masses, is it the same message just explained with better visuals or is it better explained becasue it can reach those masses further then it has before?

Really interesting article here if you'd like to share: http://bit.ly/QVtSFC

Does the blockbuster no longer have the appeal at Blockbuster?

Ok, so we've all joined one or a few of the latest download/subscription, DVD straight to your door/computer companies: Netflix, Lovefilm... and they all work... to a degree.

Do video/DVD hire companies no longer have the match on these online businesses now?

Should it matter that we seem not that bothered about ourhigh street, late night browsing opportunities, POS popcorn and instead anything straight to the door or direct to our TVs means an easier life?

And is it a sign that technology has caught up and this will be the future, forever...
