Could Holographic Video be the next Twitter?

What is next after Twitter? Personally, I do not like twitter because you cannot upload photos or really blog. All you can do is put in status lines and have people follow you and leave comments. Twitter to me is nothing more than a way for people to stock you. I worry about privacy and potential employers getting a hold of the information and not hiring you because of what is being posted. Myspace is ok, but I have noticed that there is no real way to have a multiple people conversation. Some of the pages seem to be hard to open because they have so much junk on there. It might be nice to have multiple pages instead of one. I think Facebook is the best social networking site so far in my opinion. There also seems to be so many sites out there that you can link to by using Facebook. Other social networking sites I have heard of are Friendster, Hi5, Yahoo, Classmates.com, etc. I would have to say that Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter are the top 3 in terms of popularity.

In my opinion, the next dimension of Twitter is Holographic Video. In other words, we will be meeting people by 3D or 4D video images. The people will appear as though they are standing right before your eyes, but they are actually located in a completely different part of the world. People will have the ability to be right there beside you without really being there in person. They can not harm you because they are not physically there. I see people beginning to have virtual experiences with other people who are really not there. I see this technology being brought into the Military, Business World, Schools, and even the homes in which we live in. There will be no use for computers of today's standards. Everything will be virtual. You will be able to see products, people, etc. without it being there physically in person. In the Dating World you could go out on a date with someone without having to actually meet in person. You could literally see the person virtually. You could eat, talk together, see movies together, and other experiences. The only thing you could not do, that you can do in person would be have the physical capability to touch that other person. What might be scary is you could make a home video of a person that might pass on later. You could see them like they were there for real, but it would actually be an artificial 3D or 4D video recording of that person. They would look and appear to be there, but they really are not there at all. If you were to reach out and touch the person all you would feel is air.

The Science Fiction Technology seen on Star Wars or Star Trek may not be Science Fiction after all.

Below is a really cool video I found of how Holographic Video Technology maybe possible in a not too distant future.

What does everyone else think of my discovery?

Can you imagine watching the Super Bowl in your own living room by using this form of technology? Holographic Video Technology could combine social medium on the web with TV. You could actually see the football players and it would almost be like they are right there in your living room in person. Can you imagine watching Disney movies in Holographic Perception? Could Sesame Street and Barney be real life for your child? We could even design and make up people that are not real and appear before your eyes as if they are actually real life people standing before you. Could this also be the next dimention of Horror films and Haunted Houses?
