Content Creation , Consumption and Distribution: Outlook for 2012
Renu Kulkarni, founder and Executive Director of Georgia Tech's FutureMedia talks about Futuremedia Outlook 2012.

As we approach the end of another year it is always tempting to try and look into the future of how content is created , distributed and consumed.
The Georgia Institue of Technology recently released it's Futuremedia Outlook 2012 that identifies six megatrends will have a pervasive impact:
1.Smart Data: In an increasingly noisy world, we'll have to sift, filter and be smarter about what matters.
2.People Platforms: Beyond “true personalization,” people will not just be consumers. They will be socially driven platforms made of algorithms from personal and associated data that they design and tailor themselves.
3.Content Integrity: Pervasive mobile devices, sprawling networks, clouds and multi-layered platforms have made it more difficult to detect and address our digital vulnerabilities, drawing us to trusted content sources.
4.Nimble Media: Media is evolving from a set of fixed commodities into an energetic, pervasive medium that allows people to navigate across platforms and through different content narratives.
5. Sixth Sense: Extraordinary innovations in mixed reality will change the way we see, hear, taste, touch, smell and make sense of the world – giving us a new and powerful 6th sense.
6.Collaboration: We will harness the power of many in an increasingly conversational and participatory world.
Futuremedia Outlook 2012 suggests that the coming years will bring increased content personalization, innovation and flexibility in the media landscape.
