The future according to Bruce Sterling
The language Bruce Sterling uses in this presentation at a recent Innovations Forum is quite "West Coast American" but some of the nuggets he describes in the possible "totally connected" world are both out there and spot on.
For me his "science fictional" description of what a geographically aware device" should be able to do is spot on. It's not about, "Oooh, maps" but the ability to safely deliver a 4-year-old to India for a sleep over with his mate Sanjay.
And his catchphrase all the way - Don't make me think!
Watch (about 35mins) and then wonder about your workplace and how it will TOTALLY change in the near future.
