Brian over at the Ubiquitous Librarian has an excellent summary of a talk by Vinton Cerf given at Georgia Tech. A lot of bullet points there to stimulate your thinking about what might be ahead for this world when it comes to technology.

At one point there’s a mention of illegal downloading of movies that briefly hints at the supplementary, bonus material found on DVD. Cerf suggests rather than having the material sit on a DVD to place it on the Web.

The first thought that came to my mind - and nothing original here - was the relationship between archival materials and much of that DVD bonus material, which are essentially documentaries.

Again, it raises the question that I often ponder when it comes to digital libraries: how do our digital collections support the development, the remixing (if you will), into new digital content?
