Mark Cuban has been shooting his mouth off again. In a speech last week he claimed that the Web is dead. He went on to say the real growth medium is the "intranet," otherwise defined as the on-demand and digital video-recording platforms provided by cable companies. "There's less restriction on the intranet, it's like your own corporate network for all the cable networks and even wireless. It's all locally driven anyway's. It has a true neighborhood feel. If I'm in Dallas and I'm on Time Warner Cable, I want localized content." Well listen... I have news for Mr Cuban, if I had to rely on my local cable company for Web functionality, I think I'd rather got back to semaphore or smoke signals. Cable companies have consistently failed to deliver on every promise they've ever made, from freedom of choice, delivering better and more content, and most of all on pricing. No thanks Mr. Cuban, I'll stick with what I've got.

The funny thing about the future, is you don't know what will happen!
