"All the world's a digital stage"

Ubiquitous computing in layman’s terms refers to 'feedback and response from a world that is totally connected'. This is made possible by the seamless integration of hardware and intelligent software embedded into our world. For the purpose of this article I will focus mostly on the software and the philosophy behind ubiquitous computing.

Lola, well done on having a stab at a very difficult topic. There is so much on this and its a very scary new frontier for our species. Access to information faster = faster ability to solve problems. Will we solve the problem of the human race and invent our superiors? At least superior access to information will stop people from being able to build empires based on hoarding information (yeah, I bet you can think of a couple of examples of those b****ds)!

How can anybody say that having meta information at your fingertips is a bad thing? Bring it, I still want my existenz bioport :-)

Hmm, seems we all want to "jack in". Fearless.

ty, it's a fascinating topic. The more I think on it the more I discover. I feel like an explorer who discovered a new world.

Excellent way to approach it!

I'm looking forward to my cranial jack as well, but the question remains that, eventually, will we be augmented humans, or less than human?

DesVader4343d ago

Ever played Cyberpunk. Cranial jack into "The NET". Oh yeah. Then again, it could end up being GodTM, creating a game so addictive because virtual life is much more interesting that real life. That could also happen :)

Hectic! Excellent piece!!! Well done Han!
