Imagine a society without multimedia, where telecommunications would be virtually non-existent. Can't do it? That is no surprise, because many forms of multimedia have been around since most of us have been alive. After growing accustomed to it for as long as we have, it would be very hard to live without it.
With that in mind, multimedia could only grow even more, as the possibilities are boundless. Everything will continue on the path to digitization until computers and computer processes are ubiquitous. The next age in society just may in fact be the "Digital Age". Internet will become even faster, if you can fathom that. Soon enough, VHS tapes and cassettes will become obsolete by the hand of DVDs and CDs, much the way eighttracks did in the last fifth of the 20th century. Homes around America will be equipped with the most superlative of home entertainment systems, making todays typical entertainment system look like the "boombox" of yesterday. People will continue to indulge in the personalization phenomenon, but must be careful not to over indulge to prevent cultural segregation. Cable TV will no longer exist, as dish and broadband services will take over and become yet another staple in a typical household. All these events would only mark the beginning, one could only hope to imagine what could come next.
