      I have great optimism for actually being alive to see all of this happen.  My fear is that it falls into the wrong hands.  Or we begin to rely on it so heavily, that when the system hiccups, the world crumbles.  Recently, in my "Computational World" class, we talked about how the fear is all relative.  My teacher (late 40s maybe?), said he wanted nothing to do with facebook, and has a hard time understanding why people feel the need to share in that way.  He also despises his cell phone, and only carries one because his family insists.  My generation has embraced all of these technologies, and I am positive that my son will grow up with few reservations about this incredible growth in tech.

  • Nissan, right now, is developing swarming cars based on the movements of schooling fish
  • the internet is distracting if it stops you from doing what you really want to be doing; if it doesn't, it isn't
  • we were not meant to operate as computers do
  • A related danger of the merging of online and offline life, says business thinker Tony Schwartz, is that we come to treat ourselves, in subtle ways, like computers. We drive ourselves to cope with ever-increasing workloads by working longer hours, sucking down coffee and spurning recuperation. But "
