May the Force be with you.

Hmmm. A lot of effort went into this. It’s quite slow, but you have to admire the creator’s patience! My second impression was that there is no way that I can control what's going on onscreen. My role is 'passive observer' and there is no interaction possible.Telnet (as a kind of legacy) should serve to remind us how fortunate we are now that we have such difference interfaces now– but I guess ‘we’ had to start somewhere.
So, rather than having to sit and watch the star wars “20th centure text“ version via Telnet, we can watch the clip of ‘star wars kid’ with his broom/light sabre (remember him?) and should we choose to, share it with anyone we want. 21st century users can choose to actively access information.
At the same time, we are constantly being bombarded by it. This is in part, (I think) to the development of interfaces and the sheer volume of people publishing information.
As technology has become part of everyday life (in many places globally) new communication needs arise and technology is being invented to cater for them.
In 10 years will we think youtube is passe?
