The Present Future

Kottke is getting lots of nifty responses to his “Present Future” post. The responses are about as wide and varied as you might expect… we are all of us amateur futurists.

I’m richly amused by folks in the discussion who offer views like:

“We are saturating limits of what computers on the internet can do. The whole point of the internet is connectivity, and the medium though which this happens is rather inconsequential…”

Sounds a lot like famous last words… and a deep misunderstanding of what a medium means. Will they ever learn? ;)
