  I have to confess I don't like that article. I admit part of that is merely aesthetic...but principally it doesn't allow me to grapple with examples that are rooted in the now. To give you an example of what I mean: when Bluetooth was in its early days everybody kept repeating this stuff about your Fridge being able to talk to your Toaster. They wrote imaginative articles about Toasters that told Breadbins they had just toasted the last two slices of bread or whatever. This didn't help me at all to understand a perfectly good technology. It was, frankly, distracting BS. If someone had said you could have headphones without wires (and perhaps they did) I would have gone: Ah hah! Now that may show you the hard limits of my technological imagination...but to me that's the kind of the thing that sells a new technology. I think simple examples of things we currently need to do, with practical examples of how we can do them a different way is what helps me to understand things.
