Slog: Augmented Reality Not Ready for Primetime 

Posted By Brian Unflat on 10/01/2009

Ed: This post is part of White Horse’s occasional series of slogs (speed blogs). Slogging—a concept we created here at White Horse—riffs on improv comedy concepts to create interactive writing activities. These short games bore fruit with tons of great ideas. More details are here.

The first activity we did was “Quantity over Quality”—the idea was to write as many words as possible in just a few minutes. Coherence was optional. The winner of this activity was strictly determined by word count.

What will the Internet be like in 2010?
The “next big thing” oh, no, not that question again. I’d say the next big thing to not come to fruition next year would be Augmented Reality. Yes it’s cool to say and fun to interact with but it’s not ready for prime time yet. Until the porn industry has worked it out we’ll never be ready to use AR. I’m excited for the research ahead but not happy to wait a year or more...
