As I walked down the street to my class today, I had a random thought: Technology is so damn cool. What sparked this thinking was seeing someone close by whip out their iphone, others were simply talking on theirs, and just about everyone walking in the opposite direction had headphones in their ears. I began to imagine what it must have been like when technology was at its infancy: No cell phones, no portable music players, no video games (GASP*). Before there were cars or electricity, games like Red Dead Redemption were a reality. How people got along? Don't ask me, because I couldn't imagine life without the technology we have today.
Now, lets be honest: technology is still at its infancy. While the past 100 years or so have been revolutionary to tech, there is nowhere to go but up. But, where does our future lie? With fresh ideas such as "the Cloud" or "Motion Control" as well as new discoveries like a particle which controls mass, who knows what society will be like in the years to come. Personally, I'm waiting for a world with flying cars. Oh, and for games: Beamed straight into my head. How bout you? What do you foresee in the world's future?
