The Future of Internet

If you were to wonder what the greatest invention of the 20th century is, it would definitely be the Internet. Internet really changed the way people live. It revolutionizes the way people communicate with one another and to search for information worldwide. It also enables several technologies that are important to our daily life. Come to think of it, this blog that you are reading now would not be possible without the invention of internet. And the best part about internet is that it is still evolving and we are discovering new ways to use it every day.

I think that Internet will continue to impact our life for the whole of this century. Internet is no longer just restricted to desktops and cables. As we become more and more mobile, Internet has also become mobile with our gadget via WIFI, WI-MAX and 3G. One in every five mobile phones sold in Asia are smart phones. Through this, you cannot help but exclaim how fast mobile technology has evolved over the past 3 years. We can expect to see more ways to bring internet into our life at a faster speed in the near future!

I think in the future, almost all devices will be connected to the internet. We are already seeing this trend where many devices are able to connect to the internet. Mobile phones, Television, Arcade Games and even Cars are able to connect to the internet now.

We can definitely expect to see more devices connecting to the internet that enables human to utilize it fully. Imagine your espresso machines telling your favourite online store that you are running out of coffee beans and placing an order before it goes empty. Or even your car informing your bathtub that you are approaching home so that it can fill the tub with hot water and awaits for your arrival. How cool will that be!?

How about ordering your food online where you can smell the aroma of the food?!

Or even read newspaper that has internet news attached to it and you are able to browse any news/information anytime you wish to?!

Truly no one knows what is the exact future of the internet will be like and how it will serve our life even better than now. However, one thing for sure is that the internet will continue to be part of our life and it will improve daily such that when the day comes, internet will conquer the whole world and everything will be globalized! Are you looking forward to that very day just like I am?
