NEW YORK - Comcast Corp. is working with Facebook, Intel and other technology firms to create what it calls a next-generation TV experience, which will make the TV screen more interactive by adding Internet features and apps.



"This new experience transforms the way consumers watch television with a new guide and user interface that makes the TV screen more interactive, personal and social," the cable giant said.

First the Theater tried to stimulate Audience Participation ... now Comcast wants to make "the TV screen more interactive" ... but all this audience member want to is to observe, passively and unseen, not to participate :-{ .

Am I so unique in my wants? Cheers, -- tlvp
