It is kind of annoying having to think about all those containers for your content. I would think eventually we will all have some storage somewhere that is synonymous with ourselves, anything we wish to upload will be able to be accessed and converted automatically by these computers you speak of.
I mean it's ridiculous having all these ebookstores isn't it? What exactly are they offering that is different? The interface?
Some might balk at a centralized depository of all knowledge but if it can be decentralized at the same time, by offering mirrors of itself to anyone/anything that asks, I think that would be fine.
The news of Facebook acquiring PushPop Press made me think of something called LifeBook, where users simply open up their book, write what they wish to, be it photos, videos, or straight narrative fiction... Then other users simply open their Books to another User's page to read what has been written...
