New York City | January 17, 2012 Alexis Rodriguez, 28, was treated at Bronx-Lebanon Hospital for pneumonia as an out-patient last week and survived, but the medical bill he received for more than $44 million nearly acted as a revolving door to the hospital and almost caused him an asthma attack. The $44,776,587 bill he received was apparently the result of a billing error caused by the hospital's billing company and billing errors threatened to send not just Rodriguez, but hundreds of other people back to the emergency room after they received inflated bills as well. The Daily News reports that Rodriguez actually owed about $300 for the out-patient care he received at Bronx-Lebanon Hospital in New York City last week. Somehow, invoice numbers were inserted in the space for the amount owed, leading to hundreds of panicked phone calls from patients. Rodriguez and others who had received the inflated bills were assured that they would receive new bills within a few days.

The world can now be accessed with your fingertips. Slowly the binaries are disappearing, and everything is turning into fluids. You can be the consumer and creator at the same time. With your phone, you can even conquer the world, that is, with your content.

As a child, your father would've sat in front of a television screen and watched the 9 PM film screening on Doordarshan with ten others - cousins, aunts, uncles and neighbours. There was one T.V. in the house and it belonged to everybody. Today, you watch the latest action flick on your phone, on a screen that fits in your pocket, with two others - earphones and popcorn. The content that you are watching has come a long way, has had a journey, a history. The channels and methods through which it is available to you have witnessed an evolution. As viewers, we have evolved too. Our tastes, preferences, and the ways in which we consume have changed drastically. They have enabled and been the basis of a revolution in the consumption, production and transmission of content.
