The content creators have to find a way to survive before they get swallowed up by the channels like Facebook. How long will it be before entities like Facebook and Google start acquiring or partnering with Dow Jones, Gannet, Murdoch, etc.? Like the hundreds of independent publishers who today are merely imprints of mega-media companies. Eventually press conferences at the White House will have a few little cameras representing Facebook, Google, Apple, and whoever the other gatekeepers are, and the actual journalists (or whatever we'll call information custodians) asking the questions will be virtual, numerous, and perhaps in some cases not even human. Bots are cheaper than people. We're in the midst of a revolution that is far from over. I'm not convinced it's a good thing. I've made a personal decision to detach from social networks for a while, and focus on the physical world such as raising my child, getting out and meeting people, catching up on books, exercising, traveling, hiking, etc. We'll see how long it lasts.
