    Future TrendsComputation moves into the cloudobvious but important. This is the key to the

    future which will provoke massive social change. No longer will we be tied to our

    desks or fortified corporate networks. Work anywhere on any device with the sameaccess to all the same resources.

    Technology is humanisedforget plug and pray, it just works. Long promised,

    rarely delivered. This is when technology is liberated from the geeks into the hands

    of the masses. Compatibility will be a thing of the past once computers all speak a

    common set of standard languages.Interfaces are revolutionisedkeyboards and mice will seem quaint. Touch, eye,

    voice and possibly even brain controllers will be commonplace. If you think the

    iPhone is cool you havent seen anything yet. Understandingsemantic context will

    make manipulating complex data childs play.

    Connectivity is ubiquitousthe internet is everywhere. Not just on yourcomputer or mobile ~ it will be woven into the very fabric of everyday life as an

    essential additional layer connecting everything to everyone and visa versa. Blanket

    high-speed wireless connections will exist across all major cities.

    Personalisation gets personalwhether you are in the real world or the virtual

    world your social connections, interests and history (etc) will follow you

    everywhere you go. The flow of information will be automatically targeted and finetuned around this. You control who sees what/where/when.

    Language barriers are brokenEnglish is only the 4th most spoken language in

    the world. Through real-time machine translation you now speak and understand therest. The volume of information you have at available will drastically increase

    through this. Small businesses can now operate globally.

    Information overload & dependencyfaced with more information that youcould possibly imagine people will face new challenges of how to cope. Some will

    thrive in this new sea of unlimited potential while other will face serious mental

    collapse. There will be those who choose to disconnect entirely.

    Future TrendsViruses are no morewith the majority of software provided as a service

    (SaaS) viruses which plagued Windows users will be a thing of the past.However, new even more dangerous and sophisticated threats will emerge

    with personal data stored in the cloud a prime target.

    Social homogenisationspurred on by technology, globalisation take an

    every stronger hold on social norms. It becomes a cognitive and socialculture, not a geographic one, which relies heavily on the notion of

    information and knowledge exchange in a complex web of relationships.

    Man-machine distinction blursthe line between humans and machines

    begins to lessen. Old concepts of pre-net existence will seem foreign to our

    children who will liken the change to the Age of Enlightenment when

    mankind made a seismic shift in the way we live and ultimately exist.
