Re: The Fog Thickens

One thing that I have learned is the cyclic and embarrassing nature of prediction. Fusion power has been 25 years away for the past 60 years.

"Virtual Reality controllers are going to be the norm in 10 years", was confidently predicted by the head of the AES in 1992.

Touch screen have been and gone in Star Trek and the DAW world for good reason and although often predicted, I don't see them as a decent ergonomic solution. My experience of the iPad/Pod doesn't change my thinking.

13 years may seem like a long time but I think people over estimate the rate of change or more importantly the nature of change.
