Next - A man with a vision

I've no doubt that in the future the difference between a website and a television channel will be practically indistinguishable. Television is becoming more interactive (witness the slow evolution of Foxtel through its IQ device, or the rapid evolution of online video through portals such as Bebo). If there is anything out there that's close to the way of the future, it's Current, which is both a cable TV station and a website, with 30 percent of its content created by its consumers. Vice president Ezra Cooperstein was recently in Australia as a guest of Portable Content, and you can read my interview with him in this story from Next.
