Technology Boom (and bubble)

The presentation we received from Al Tompkins of the Poynter Institute this afternoon was arguably the most eye-popping of the week. We were shown some of the latest technology on the market now along with some things to come in the future. I think the majority of us found the "BubbleTweet" most entertaining since it's probably the quickest to access. I'm pretty sure everyone here has Twitter on their Smartphones, so I can only imagine how fast the Tweets were sent out. Personally I found the 1st Video mobile video app for iPhone the most intriguing. The application allows one to shoot video on a phone, then edit the video and audio within the program to assemble a package. The program resembles the iMovie program used to edit video on a Mac.
