The Future Is Now
- bsaunder 19y agoKinda surprised there was no mention of anybots. I think the general populace is going to be shocked at how quick some major changes happen in the near future.

- pg 19y agoThe author doesn't seem to realize that the Internet's name changed in about 1988. I suspect the WP has earlier references to it under its previous name, Arpanet.
