21st Century Marketing Collateral

As technology has enabled new ways for jobseekers to market themselves, will the resume be replaced?  Why or why not?  If so, by what?

Actually, I think eventually they will.  People are utilizing qr codes for instant access to video resumes.  I think that will be the main trend of the future - however, in certain fields, graphic resumes are also popular.  However, I think it will take time as many people are still very resistant to change and technology. 

@rstarks :I think the resume is already being replaced by personal videos of the applicant. Parts of a resume will never go away but the way information about a person is relayed to the employer is already changing. I don't know if this wil be a good thing for those that are not computer saavy but this is the way society is moving so they will have to go that way too.
