Image via WikipediaIf you suffer from Apophenia, seeing patterns or connections in random or meaningless data, then you sense the print world moving towards a digital "event" horizon. But is that a problem? For content owners, we may be able to be agnostic in the future, if we store our materials in flexible ways... and triage the selection of content into meaningful collections.The world of XML and databases enables us to carefully select, by title type/category, which digital future content store we should invest in. Rather then a one format, one type fits all, digital content may have a more complex future, rather then a simple one.
Most of the twitter posts that I am collecting are websites leading towards different semantic futures... those futures are the core to preparing and storing content now. Not the devices and display formats available today.

It's not so much a disease as a condition....
Or a job description.
