What I like about these ideas is the kind of world that you imagine them creating.

(I’ve been working on one based the last point for a while now.)

– Energy saving solar technology will be built into asphalt, paint and windows
– You will have a crystal ball for your health
– You will talk to the Web . . . and the Web will talk back
– You will have your own digital shopping assistants
– Forgetting will become a distant memory
