God is everywhere, so cellular networks and soon computer networks. There are only a few boundaries to human communication but this is about to change with computers evolving to different sizes, form factors and shapes acting as intelligent tranceivers. The network will soon be everywhere, will watch and listen to everything, will archive and resurrect anything. So is God but before that, here comes the robot (of interconnected and social type).
What it looks like a 64GB or 160GB Intel solid state drive now, it’s the future of computing. Storage was the first step. Integrating storage and computing power is the future. Moore’s law is alive and kicking. Expect cheaper, smaller, faster SSDs with a CPU core or two in the distant future.
The smartphone is more than a phone, it’s a digital projection of our yet to be discovered digital ego. Devices like the Nokia N900 might look like useless to the majority of fishermen but are way too important for everyone, fishermen included. The fine line between online and offline is already blurry but it’s still there. If you want to jump on the always online-i make all decisions on my own-and accept full responsibility, now it’s the time. The boat will still be small or big enough to accommodate our bodies but the real question is where our egos will rest, on the boat or inside a mobile device with the speed of a comet?
