Kevin Kelly: Predicting the next 5,000 days of the web

This is a summary of a talk given by Kevin Kelly at the TED conference in December 2007.

(Kevin Kelly is the founding editor of Wired magazine, and has written extensively on digital culture. Here is his blog).

In 50 words or less:

The Internet has turned out to be more amazing than anyone imagined 5000 days ago, and in 5000 days’ time it will be similarly more amazing than we can imagine now – perhaps a single machine linking most things and people in a giant semantic, open, transparent, organism-like system.

If you enjoy the annotated video of this talk, please leave me a comment or raise a question – I love thinking about and discussing this stuff!
