History and prediction

Take a look at EPIC 2014. It has a provocative lead-in "In the year 2014, the New York times has gone offline..What happened to the news?". Then follow the link to the 8 minute video.

It's an interesting piece, combining some history and predictions. All the details are precisely correct - for example, it identifies Time Berners-Lee as a computer scientist, but the inaccuracies are nits that can be picked off while keeping the meaning intact. The piece was produced by the Museum of Media History, written by Robin Sloan and Matt Thompson.
