So here it is. A network player like Cisco entering the home entertainment space -- by announcing that they will provide telepresence solutions for the home -- through AT&T and Walmart (!) see this article. I was hoping Tandberg would come up with a solution like this. But, Tandberg is focusing on the small/medium size business with the T1.
Anyway, the race for Telepresence is heating up; and as sales of LCD-displays increase it looks like we may be having these devices in the not-too-distant-future. As these devices reach the home and as the service economy grows; we can soon be using services that were previously restricted to face-to-face meetings. In a global world, this could be very interesting as I could receive services from the other side of the globe. Hmmm.... now what would my doctor think about that? And maybe the do-it-yourself store can finally offer services to help you fix the appliance you bought from them. Would IKEA try something like this?

It is long overdue, the time to split my blog into a separate blog that focuses on a special theme of the Digital Society.
Welcome to the Digital care and well-being blog. I will post there on matters of healthcare and well-being. I will continue posting to my Digital Society blog on all other matters until I find another topic that is appropriate to branch out to. After all, Society 2.0 is a huge topic.
