Ah!  Therein lies the problem I see.  I have not seen this happen to any technology I 
have seen in the past.  What becomes popular is more or less independent of informed 
decisions or technological superiority.

My experience has been "resistance is futile."  Whether I like it or not the world 
around me will move on, and I can either reject it or try to shape it so that the 
negative impact is minimal for me.

As far as multimedia is concerned, it's here!  Check out the new cell phones these 
days, and any web-based chatting (w/ video), etc.  More and more folks around me are 
using those to communicate, and if I want to keep in touch, I need to adapt.  My 
prediction is it's going to proliferate even more as more people get on broadband 
connection around the world.  Can't stop the running train by standing in front of it 
however strongly willed you and I might be.
