Ever since Bill Gates debuted the wristwatch voice activated computer in Las Vegas at the giant computer show one has to imagine one heck of a great future where your computer, information and life is interactive and with you at all times. Now Microsoft is pushing forward to help people into the future of technology and what Science Fiction Authors like Arthur C. Clarke have been discussing for years. Previously, I have even written on the exact concept of SmartMobs and Interactivity of Cell Phones, linking to your everything and eventually your brain for social groups, as described by Arthur C Clarke and others, I believe that is the direction of human collective communication 2-3 decades out, this is the start of it as I see. Gates is correct in that, I see it too, I am a fan of his brilliance and hard work. Now then let us consider this next step for a second and let us consider its benefits far beyond social collective instant collaboration. I think this technology can save people in natural disasters and makes sense for traffic flows like the Battell Project in Seattle and the most advanced GPS systems now. You see what Microsoft is now saying is that you will be able to communicate with all your computer and electronic hardware and it will serve you rather than you serving it. Consider all this in 2006. |
