In 2005, Fred Wilson authored a blog post titled "The Future of Media". It remains extremely relevant and insightful, 5 years after its publishing, and has been proven right throughout a few major waves of innovation, such as Facebook and the iPhone. In Fred's words, the future of media has 4 major components:
1 - Microchunk it - Reduce the content to its simplest form. Thanks Umair.
2 - Free it - Put it out there without walls around it or strings on it. Thanks Stewart.
3 - Syndicate it - Let anyone take it and run with it. Thanks Dave.
4 - Monetize it - Put the monetization and tracking systems into the microchunk. Thanks Feedburner.
Today, I saw a new innovation that is feeding on the above points, but is also extremely good at the interface level: The Flipboard. And, yes, please add me to the fanboy list. And please see the video below for Mike McCue's demo of the Flipboard. It's really difficult to describe.

Good summary. I'm enjoying Flipboard a lot too, and blogged about it as a vehicle for school/university communication here:
