Devicification of the Web

As I was presenting ideas about social media and the trends that we are seeing. I used a term that answers some of the critiques of the statusphere: devicification of the Internet.

As Google knows where I am through my mobile phone, plaxo tracks my online activities, and possibly my DVR “tweets” the show that I am watching, increasingly the activity status updates will fit my flow.

Scary? Hell yes it is, but then again I write about more “revealing” things than “my washer just finished a load of laundry.” Unfortunately, the washer is probably more interesting.
