Wired has an excellent article on Apple’s foray into live video streaming. For individuals and businesses interested in contemplating the future, I encourage you to think through the ramifications of “life-logging”—or the idea that more and more people will begin uploading major chunks of their life onto the Internet.

For newspapers and media, it will empower citizen journalists. For travel and transportation-related industries, it might mean fewer face-to-face meetings as individuals grow increasingly comfortable communicating in this new, more immersive format. And for healthcare professionals (and patients) it might portend quicker and remote diagnosis of disease.
