Looks like the Internet and cloud computing could kill the PC as we know it, but the TV as a media to deliver content is far more sociable to those in your house than the PC. However, the PC as a social networking media beats the TV if you are reaching people outside your house. Maybe there is room for both.

But its damn cool. Sorry if this is a double post, seems to have gotten slightly bugged ** Kind of sad at the same time :/ I would’ve loved if Youtube actually brought the same features to the computer television brings to your TV.

The Activila service is available on a wide range of Panasonic TV's and you can plug straight in with a normal Ethernet LAN cable. The YouTube feature only seems to be on the PZR range of TV's e.g. PZR 900. They may produce a software upgrade download in the future, but haven't heard anything yet. Which TV model do you have?

More than a year ago, I got a Panasonic digital TV Viera, which can utilize the Actvila service. But, you have to pay extra for that, right?

I really think this is a big deal for the internet. YouTube just left the internet stratosphere and found its way into my living room.
