Idea to fruition = half a century. So Popular Mechanics amazed me as a kid. They often speculated what the future held, but if I was to look back at their predictions and the current year, I'd probably be disappointed. I realize tech (specifically mobile) is the fastest evolving industry right now, but am I the only who feels that we're still behind on ideas coming to reality? It's what compelled me to get into coding. I didn't want to be one of the people that expresses an idea and say "they should make an app, that blah blah blah." I'm not waiting, I'll learn to code, and smash a keyboard...but I'll do it my self!
