I think I/S needs content-aware GPS accelerometer-equipped AR glasses with commercial-message image-sensing pixel-replacement software. Didn't Google work with Adobe on something like this? Maybe it could also replace the heads of people he doesn't like with a big smiley.

I can't get my head around how the web embedding might work. When clicking on the image, are you able to select a near-infinite number of focal distances? Or are these just 20 or so stacked images, enough to select a decent image for wherever you might click?

Hard News: Telling stories about us, in reply to nzlemming,

Most people will watch whatever is put in front of them, and they're encouraged to do so by the hype and bullshit that the channels throw at them about upcoming shows. Even otherwise intelligent people seem to tweet about shit like Project Runway or Masterchef Rotovegas or somesuch, so they must be watching it, god help them.
What a load of condescending rubbish.
