I saw the new Verizon commercials for accessing Facebook and Twitter from your remote control. OTT (”Over the top”) consumer devices are ready for this, but I'm not sure consumers are quite ready yet to interact with their television quite yet.

Thanks for the post. Not sure how this thing will shake out – OTT still needs an easier, faster solution for mass market viewing – cable needs interactivity and control for users…I think OTT will continue to grow in popularity – people do want an alternative to cable…Multi-screen communications need to happen in many delivery formats – cable, OTT box, built in CE/TV device.

I guess well see!
