The March of Progress

VoIP is growing. 3D is moving from gaming to the desktop and from the desktop to the PDA and phone. It won't be long before I can plug in a Wi-MAX router at home to tap into a growing mesh of free and independant routers that have no tie or allegiance to the corporate owned and operated Internet. Advances in wetware/hardware integration are arriving at a startling rate. Verizon is gearing up to roll out fiber optic to the home with a rated bandwidth of up to 30Mb/s. I have a personal home theater with 7.1 surround sound and a 9 foot screen in my room over the garage. Phillips was right. I've got to admit it's getting better. Better all the time. If we can just keep the government out of it and the corporations away from it the human race might have a bright future.
