In June 2005 I blogged about Epic 2015, a brilliant flash movie by Robin Sloan and Matt Thompson. It was an update on their darker Epic 2014. I mention Epic today, more than a year after my original post since there are many more readers here now who may not know about Epic. Before you watch it, think for a moment about how much has changed online in the last year. Google alone has evolved dramatically – forward in its mission to index all information in the world.
Newsagents could be the dinosaurs of this changing world. To ensure they (we) do not become extinct, newsagents need to be aware of the changes happening around them and within the businesses of their suppliers. One way to understand the possibility of the extent of change is to watch Epic.
