Imagine 100 years from now. How will they (I guess all of us are dead) look back at our time and age? Will they ever understand all the fuzz about iPad, web 3.0, Google WAVE, HP, Microsoft etc? All the buzz about hard- and software we are using today. Right now it seems important 'what' and 'how' we use all the hard- and software. It seems irrelevant 'why' we use this technology.
In 100 years software is something like electricity now. It's there! (Or not when the power is down.) I know nothing about the hard- and software of electricity. Do you? I don't read magazines, tweets and blogs on wires and sockets. About their colours, useability, the companies that deliver them and the CEO's (who are treated like sexy popstars) of the companies that make them.
Imagine 100 years from now! What do you see?
I think the big picture of this blog is still valid. But I undervalued the strong impact of individual entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs like Steve Jobs who have a dream and reshape the world we live in with their products.
