The Singularity must be the next metasystem transition (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metasystem_transition http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metasystem_transition), the Control of Culture.
As soon as old media will get napstered and Culture will become impossible to be manipulated, and, as soon as we uploaded ourselves completely to the web --- we will have a new digital universe assuring parallel existences and a gateway to the 'old' biological life.
Is that good enough for a Singularity?
