Could this replace SR Media corps?

It takes a few mintues, but it's mostly beleiveable.

Well that's certainly a happy piece :)

I could see just about all of that in our near future.

There are more than a few holes of logic in this idea of the future. What's with the emphasis on blogging when it's popularity seems to be bolstered by idiocy and it serves the same purpose as sliding your balls on a cheese grater? What is the future of the Internet's underbelly or the bloated security companies living off the programming mistakes of Microsoft? Is google going to make a rival operating system next? How exactly are the two companies competing on the same level?

Semi paraphrased from a guy I know.

Very believeable, and I would so see Epic being the gateway for the virus that causes the Crash of 2029.

Googlezon is an awesome name.

That being said, I could more easily see this leading to a modern Shiawase/Seretech decision than the Crash or an AI.

Yeah, that' a little hard to swallow. Still, reminds me of the Librairy of Congress in Snow Crash where everyone uploads info and you get a cut depending on how many people look at it.
