Flash is coming to your TV. For anyone who doesn’t work in digital media then this will mean not much, but if you consider that this development will mean that we’ll soon have the opportunity to add real interactivity to linear broadcast media beyond simple information delivery or different viewing angles then you’ll see why I’ve gone a bit moist.
Imagine watching a tv show and being able to interact and form tribes with other audience members while the plot unfolds (sci-fi fans take note), or being able to go and find out more in-depth information while watching a documentary about the rain forests, or playing a game that’s based on the plot unfolding before you, the possibilities are massive…telly’s not dead, it’s just waking up.
