Britain's Prince William has broken up with his long-time girlfriends Kate Middleton as per reported in news last Week. Friends of the second in line to the throne confirmed that the tabloid story was correct but an official spokesman would only say "We do not discuss his private life." The news said the couple, who met while studying at St Andrew University in Scotland, has reached "an amicable agreement" to end their relationship. The romance by the eldest son of the late Prince Diana had been conducted under the full glare of media publicity with paparazzi constantly hounding Middleton outside her London apartment. The young couple were seen hugging and kissing during a skiing holiday in Switzerland only last month. Their relation had been strained since William graduated from Sandhurst military academy last December. A close friend of the couple told that William simply hasn't paying enough attention to Kate. She is stuck in London while he is living in an officer's mess. Kate feels hugely frustrated that their relationship just seems to be going backwards at a rate knots.

Digital and video download to be newspaper of the future.
It's pretty obvious that digital connection is going to be like oxygen to our culture. Base from the studies, that are showing numbers of newspaper reader in the US is dwindling as cyberspace gains ground. One recent report by Pew research centre in Wasington found that 43% of Americans today turn to the internet for news as opposed to 17% who rely primarily on a nation newspaper. Much more wireless broadband will be available globally and information will be probably less text-based than visual . The changes of technologies would allow information to converge into a single device. Video would become the dominant medium for information with consumer able to download them on demand via the internet or mobile phones. We are witnessing an explosion of video creation and entering an era where video is everywhere. People are going to make video continously. Instead of getting text alert on our phones, we'll get little video alerts too. With that in mind, newspaper as we know them may become a thing of the past in the not-so-distant future. Print may be dying. Advertising revenues are also expected to change drastically, as ads on the internet are not as lucrative as those newspapers.
