Let me begin with Moore’s Law “is the empirical observation that the complexity of integrated circuits, with respect to minimum component cost, doubles every 24 months[1]. It is attributed to Gordon E. Moore[2], a co-founder of Intel.” So what exactly does that mean? Well let me relate it to my life personally; When I was between 8-9 I can specifically remember wondering through my great grand ma’s cabin. I ran across some extremely old Dick Tracy Comic books that were very, very, old. I was immediately intrigued by the vision of the writers and contributing artist vision. A cell phone watch and TV? I received my first computer at the age of 13. I can remember my Aunt Mary giving me my first BBS Yellow Page Book at the age of 14! I can remember using the web well before Al Gore took credit for creating it.
So what is next in short it is what is mobile, agile, multi-faceted. Generation X is X-tremly technologically savvy! We can’t rope the range so we evidently needed to create our on version of the Wild Wild West hence “www.”.
The next big thing is actually small just look around you samsung is already able to develop a cell phone with up to 8gb in it! The point is not to long from now you will have a pentium 3 in a cell phone. You already have film makers making movies with cell phones. When you combine all the features and place everything on the web you have a paradigm shift. Look at the popularity of My-Space and keep in mind Nokia is out to install an Apache server on all cell phones. I also like the fact that major cell phone companies are converging on Linux! So think different and work smart! Just look around you and don’t ever be too complacent, because disruptive change is around the bend…
