Bluetooth is a wireless protocol utilizing short-range communications technology facilitating data transmission over short distances from fixed and mobile devices, creating wireless personal area networks (PANs). The intent behind the development of Bluetooth was the creation of a single digital wireless protocol, capable of connecting multiple devices and overcoming problems arising from synchronization of these devices e.g. MAC to PC, Zen to Mac.
Bluetooth is now an iatrical part of all most laptop and mobile phone technology.
An ethos of unity throughout different technology is something which seems to be a big part of the origins* and evolution of Bluetooth. This is a characteristic which in the current Web 2 and Wikinomics environment leads me to think this technology has a healthy future.
* Bluetooth was named after a tenth-century king, Harald Bluetooth, King of Denmark and Norway. He was known for his unification of previously warring tribes from Denmark (including now Swedish Scania, where the Bluetooth technology was invented), and Norway.
Maybe it would be good to continue this ethos and unify music producers with their target audience and via versa.
