There are two interesting developments that you might want to know about in the internet news these days.
IPTV and iPhones.

Internet television was quickly shutdown a few years ago due to copyright infringements. Now, Skype and Kazaa are negotiating with BBC channel 4 to stream their shows for on-demand watching. To be launched in 2007, this venture could be one of the most interesting developments to commercial and public television.

Internet telephone from Cisco and providers like Google & Skype could really do significant damage to Ma Bell and our Celular providers. When WiMax comes into being, you will only need one telephone and it will probably be a free service, just purchase the phone.
