This is a site about interactive television. But, what is interactive television? And, does it exist?
After at least 10 years in the press, in the labs and troubled market trials interactive television remains more or less a non-existing medium. The main reason is that traditional television has grown to be such an ubiquitous medium that changing it is now very difficult --at least in the very short term.
Nevertheless, change happens subliminally through video-game consoles, DVDsand digital video recorders that bring a user-friendly high-end PC on top of your TV set. In addition to living-room entertainment appliances, the personal computer and Internet (these old television enemies), turn rapidly into entertainment servers, supporting and augmenting the role of the dumb television box.
So, keep believing in interactive television! It's coming, although it may not look like it was imagined. In the end, everything is just a matter of time and perspective!
