J.J. I am not so sure at moment you are retired industrialist  But in this stead, professional informational adjustment specialist {ministry of propaganda}. Just being comical  Seriously though, your presentation has a great many surprises in accuracy as not to be lightly taken. For it contains the elements of both psychological and Sociological mechanics. These being: Action words, Suggestion and Structured Information... An innovative approach to suggestive motivation with use of repetitive music to catch and keep attention coupled with the spoken word in repetition for memory capture with enforcement. One element I have missed though, where is the subliminal message contained??? Or is it so well designed as to go un-noticed?? Loved it...... Karl |

JJ/Karl,
Do you realise that this message is three years old?
It is amazing how technology and science has changed our lives.
We are the first interactive, electronic, digitalized, real global generation in the world. In our kids time the color tv and video emerged in the seventees, we knew the cassette recorder.
We grew up with our telephones, the phonograph ((sound writer), record player, or gramophone (letter + sound)) with our singles, our 12-inch (30-cm) 33⅓ rpm records and our walkmans and our radio-cassette players and recorders. In the arly eightees we had our first primitive IBM-Personal computers with cassettes or Floppy Disks. Halfway the eightees we saw the introduction of the digital audio cd's and audio cd players, In the ninetees the DVD was introduced. The DVD is an optical disc storage media format, invented and developed by Philips, Sony, Toshiba, and Panasonic in 1995. The DVD replaced the old VHS-video system. After that in the ninetees and in the beginning of this centrury the digital revolution of the computer software and hardware continued.
In the roaring ninetees there was the internetboom of the New economy, in which Young Urban Professionals (Yuppies), stock brokers urned lots of money on the electronic stock exchange NasdaQ and other stock markets. Companies like Windows, Apple, Intel, Adobe
software (photoshop, Indesign, Illustrator, Premiere), Marcomedia, Quark Xpress (for the priniting sector), Final Cut Pro, and Providers, Modem (modulator-demodulator) producers, electronic chip producers and other ICT-companies, advertisers, 'app's' (Application software), cell-phone producers and others got rich from them huge market for Personal computer software, chips, applications.
Dot-com bubble
In the second half of the ninetees we saw the Dot-com bubble, also called the IT (Information technology) bubble
or Internet bubble. That was a speculative bubble covering roughly 1995-2000, during which stock markets in
Industrialized nations saw their equity value rise rapidly from growth in the more recent Internet sector and
related fields. The period was market by the founding (and, in many cases, spectacular failure) of a group
of new Internet-based companies commenly refered to as dot-coms. Companies were seeing their stockprices
shoot up if they simply added an "e-" prefix to their name and/or a ".com" to the end, which one author called
"prefix investing".
A combination of rapidly increasing stock prices, market confidence that the companies would turn future profits,
individual speculation in stocks, and widely available venture capital created an environment in which many
investors were willing to overlook traditional metrics such as P/E ratio in favor of confidence in technological
advancements.
The bubble bursts
In 1999 Dot-com bubble began to show cracks and failures, in 2000 the IT bubble began to deflate. When the U.S. Federal Reserve increased interest rates six times, the economy began to lose speed.
Microsoft found itself in the Federal court for monopoly charges. Later in Europe Microsoft was sued by the European Union too for the same reasons, monopoly on the huge European innermarket. Strangely enough I think Microsoft has stil the monopoly in the world for PC operating systems, with it's Microsoft Windows XP and Windows Vista.
After the collapse of the ICT-Market (IT/Internet bubble/Dot-com bubble) the Internet, software, hardware market recovered and became more serious. The New economy merged with the old economy, and the New economy was judged like the old economy. No Dot-com bubble any more, and calculations on imaginairy future developments and growth. The knowledge and experiance with Internet use, trade and development, the quality of new software, hardware, websites, applications has grown, and the Internet economy has expanded again. Today you can't imagine an economy without the huge influence of the World Wide Web, E-bay, Google Plus, Facebook, LinkedIN, MSM and etc.

J.J. and Pieter Quite interesting and educational as this presentation progresses, for I do find it quite interesting. Much has been formerly forgotten in time and neglect {I must takes steps for future care}. The history of recording though, is an interest in self, for were you aware of wire recorder/play back machines of the 30s and 40s? In the war time, these machines in as well as early oxide tape machines developed and used by broadcast stations for record and later play back. The following url is an interesting of such description of wire recorders. www.videointerchange.com/wire_recorder1.htmwww.pavekmuseum.org/jmullin.htmlKarl |
