Ladies and Gentlemen, Karl Marx

Sometimes when I am working, I start to wonder, what might life be like for Karl Marx, if he were alive today. What would the experience of individuals working online or interacting with personal computers, pda's and podcasts, and watching reality TV do to the man and his thinking?
He might have a web site, but would he see media as an instrument of freedom or enslavement?
I don't think he would have a talk show, I think he'd be a blogger.
Just a thought.

i think he'd be stuck in some committee that was supposedly empowered but actually ignored outside its own membership.
