			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.ifanboy.com/about">Ron Richards</a> gave an awesome presentation about the future of internet television and what they are working towards at <a href="http://revision3.com">revision3.com</a>. I&#8217;ve been watching rev3 stuff for a while and I agree with him that the convergence of the computer and the television is inevitable. Being able to watch high quality niche content on a HD tv is a dream that is going to be realized before we know it though there is still a debate on the best way to get there. I personally believe that the best way to get that content to the TV is not through a set top box distribution model that we have now with Apple TV, slingbox, Tivo, etc but fully integrated wifi tv and a built in video podcast subscribing system similar to what iTunes has now. Apple TV is not the future; just a bridge to that until a large television company realizes what a HUGE opportunity is currently being untapped. I think wireless keyboards in a living room setting is going to be commonplace within the next 10-20 years an a whole wave of new market for web enabled &#8220;TV apps&#8221; are going to emerge.</p>
<p>To me this is very exciting because when this happens, it will be a game changer. Of course we&#8217;ll always have network TV, but it will be possible for someone with a great idea, to create their own sustainable show and have it broadcasted to million as opposed to thousands a week like it is now with podcasts. It&#8217;s going to change the advertising game as well, creating a much  longer longtail with higher ROI the more niche the program becomes. We&#8217;ve already seen game systems turn into very powerful computers, I think it&#8217;s only logical for televisions to evolve in a similar fashion.</p>
<p>Anyways, here&#8217;s Ron&#8217;s presentation. Good stuff.<br />
