Tech Thursday: Listening TVs!

We've touched upon the television a couple of times in this space - TVs became 3D; TVs & the 4th Wall; TVs becoming Interactive. This 'post' will expand on that last topic - particularly around some of the cool concepts AT&T unveiled today as a part of its "Innovation Showcase".

• Can your TV be voice-activated? Sure - why not?
• Should you be able to see Twitter 'ratings' for a program? Of course!
• How about translation - do you want that? Uh, yes...

Strangers on a Plane
