The Museum of Media History has recently produced a short film which charts the evolution of media from 1984 up until 2014, the date the history was supposedly written. It chronicles the changes we’ve seen to date plus future changes, including the merger of Google and Amazon to form “EPIC”, the Evolving Personal Information Construct. EPIC will be able to connect, filter and prioritize information for every media consumer on the planet, using a single source of media content that contains everything that anyone could possibly ever want to know about. Are you ready for the future?

LOL is a TLA
LOL (laughing out loud) is a TLA (three-letter acronym). Are you ever confused by the geek-speak of TLAs? There’s help at last with a brand new search engine called, suggestively, Acronyma. AFAIK it’s the only SE currently devoted to TLAs, FLAs, ETLAs, and SFLAs. Have fun looking them all up!
