It may have been interesting to see a market develop for home IT services in years past, but I guess I’m not thrilled with the idea of supporting consumers who simply don’t understand technologies limitations. Thankfully, technology has improved greatly since I started playing around with computers and software back in 1980, but it still has a long way to go to function as easily as a DVD player.
Still, this is the type of thing for shops like Avatar Consultants and others – the real fun with consumer IT services is the media integration, wireless streaming solutions and such that can be meshed together quite easily with today’s technology. Cheap WiFi and disk storage, plentiful broadband options, pervasive mobile devices, and free services can mashed up into any number of unique solutions for anyone interested in letting their imagination wander.
