JET PACKS. CATS. REVOLUTION
True innovation is rarely foreseeable. If yesterday's notions about the future were even close to the mark, we'd be flying around in our cars or wearing jet packs and living in floating houses. Instead, we carry around yesterday's equivalent to a super computer in our pockets and use it to look at cat memes, take pictures of sushi and enable revolution. Technology has become weird, it eludes definition and form and the more deeply intertwined we become with it, the more ethical dilemmas we run into.
Just as today's digital mainstays largely evaded foresight, so too will the truly important and disruptive technologies of the tomorrow. Yet, I will always be compelled to wonder what's next and, perhaps more importantly, how it will change what it means to be a human being.
Luckily, this week, I have someone much more competent and qualified than myself to bounce my inane ramblings off of, Bianca Bosker. She's one of those people who's close to my age that just makes me feel self-conscious because she's accomplished so much more than I have. She's the Executive Editor of Huff Post Tech and the author of a very fascinating book called Original Copies. Make sure you give her a follow on Twitter, check out her book and keep up with her work on Huffington Post.
It's official, we're a year old and we've got all of you beautiful listeners to thank. Year one brought in thousands of downloads from over 60 countries and I truly couldn't be more pleased.
