Think back to fifteen years ago. Nobody had an email address. Google didn’t exist. Nobody thought about downloading music. Nobody thought about watching TV shows on a computer monitor. We used to queue up for our train tickets. What about now? We use the Internet to do research. We use it to do the shopping. We use it to do our banking. We use it to listen to music or to read books… I can’t remember the last time I took a glance at a phone book. I purchase my concert ticket on the web and I print it just before the show. If necessary, I also print a map to know precisely where the concert hall is. File sharing systems has brought the CD to their knees. Google has changed the world and we were unable to predict that change. We didn’t see the net coming.
New technology always challenges the established order. We should not forget that the only thing permanent is change.
