Rab: God, I do hate decimal points. You’re right. Instead of holding the total of all works published in English, it would merely hold every word of every book, from Moby-Dick to Mom’s self-published cookbook, for the last five years. But then, it’s just a two pound laptop. And you’re doubly right about what one of the effects will be, see my piece earlier this month about the need for a new kind of agent editor. As a complete information slut, I can’t say I’m worried about that side effect.
Joseph: You’re right. I also left out robotics, the grid cloud, most everything I might have said about ubiquitous computing, and the list goes on and on. I’ll be interested to read your blog.
Concerned: You’re also right, and I want to state for the record my opposition to EMP. An EMP attack could ruin your whole day.
