Oh well it's a good job that the future of TV bodes well for Intel, according to their Consumer Experience Architect. Lucky he didn't calculate that TV will make Intel obsolete...

@Raganeau I cited the generally accepted first public display of televisions, not when or how they were invented. :) There's lots of history there I didn't cover!

i think the future TV will be a wallpaper-like sheet that you paste onto a wall. the wallpaper TV will be as big as a person wants. There may even be full wall wallpapers. Then, these wallpaper TVs will have kinect like capabilities and advance voice recognition that will let people search and watch tv and internet tv

"From the past to the present, televisions and their programming have rapidly evolved from their first incarnations to what they are now."

Wow, really? They changed from what they were then, in the past, to what they are now, in the present? That is some brilliant writing...

I feel like I'm the only one who still likes to sit down and wait for a program to be on at its regular time

[rickcheyne]

I get 300 channels and still most of the time there's nothing to watch. TV has a future?

Ya hear that Charles Trippy? "The Internet won't kill TV at all"

Opps, sorry, Britain's first television broadcast, was on 30 September 1929. The first regular BBC Televison service started 2 November 1936.

You forgot to mention the addition of stereo to TV in the 80's.

Keen way to expertly describe the future of something. State what we currently have and add "I think you'll see more of that".

[huntrvallt]

@HewbertLarzToast Ya I enjoy that sometimes more because then, a favorite show becomes more of an event but I hardly ever have the time anymore

[djtronx]

I watch ALL my TV online anyway, so this is the natural progression as far as I can see.

@Chinaman96792 No, it may had seemed likely to happen, but they will eventually fuse into the same thing.

Wow, the vision of future TV we had 15 years ago!

@Manifusion the FCC sold all of those frequencies to the cell phone companies.

[raifsevrence]

@rickcheyne From the sound of it, it's way past time you quit paying for craptastic cable/satellite television and simply got a subscription to Netflix or something like that.

If it's not On Demand, it's whack . Anything resembling a Tivo is just too much of a hassle imo.
Television needs to evolve into a 100% on demand service so that people can enjoy watching what they want to watch when they want to watch it without any kind of hassle involved.

15 years down the road ? No idea.

If a song "Video Killed the Radio Star", but today is the video doomed by the internet!!! "Internet killed the video star"
