According to some gurus, our web-based-world will experience major changes over the next few years. And it will not just be ‘the same web, only bigger. No way. We are creating ‘the One’, that is one big computer(system), connecting everyone to everybody to everything. Our phones, laptops, tv’s and other devices will transform into (no more than) ‘windows’ to look into ‘the One’.
But there’s more. In the near future, all ‘things’ will also become part of this mega-system. All our stuff will be connected to ‘the One’, communicating and sharing data. Your shoe will share stories with the world. Where it’s made, when, by whom, what ingredients are used, how many times it has been used, where it is right now (check Google maps!)…
Ping! Hi John, this is a message from your BMW. Could you please be so kind to check my oil, it’s dirty and has not been changed since 11 November 2009! Please solve this problem within 3 days, otherwise I will have no other choice than to tell “the One”…
I can’t wait to have a good conversation with my coffee machine or an indepth discussion with my wife’s shampoo…
How about you?
Ben
