The Post that Ties Squirrels into Publishing
Today's question: Assuming we make it through the 2012 apocalypse, what do you imagine the publishing world will look like 100 years from now?
Holy hand grenades! The Lurkdom grew overnight*. So hello to all who are new to The Lurkdom.
Today is all about the future and what I predict. Given that when I was 6, I envisioned that by the year 2025 we would be living it up like The Jetsons... yeah.
So 2111, by the miracle of science, I'll still be 29** and the world will be run under a dictatorship of squirrels. Because of their lack of reading skills***, the publishing world is in a state of chaos. The only good thing is that all reading material gets beamed directly to the brain.
Coincidentally out of this chaos, we will finally stage a coup against our squirrely overlords. Then Amazon and Apple will have an epic battle to the death. The victor will then rule us all.
*crickets*
And this is why I don't post pre-coffee.
Do you think Apple and Amazon will have a fight to the death in 2111?
* That means only 15 more people need to join before the Race to 150 closes. Tell your friends and if they say you referred them, you get an extra entry.
** Which means I'll still be lying about my age or I'll really be 29.
*** Though how they managed to become dictators without reading comprehension still baffles the world after 50 years. Clearly they must be the superior race if we haven't figured out a way to beat a bunch of illiterate rodents.
