All of a Sudden the Future is Real: Are You Ready?

February 28 2017

lwolf All of a Sudden the Future is Real Are You Ready

You go to a café, order a drink and sit down. You start working on your laptop. Your phone buzzes with emails, texts. You're connected to the office. Confident in your technology.

But as you look around, you notice things.

The barista has a sleek pink Fitbit, the new version. Every step she takes to the carafe and back sends her fitness metrics to the cloud and then to her own personalized tracking site.

The front 'cash' rings in eTransfers with an iPad. Even if you wanted to pay cash, they probably don't have any change on hand.

The café's music is voice-activated, run by Bluetooth through Amazon Echo. No wires. No worries.

A gentleman leaving the café wears a digital watch. He communicates through the watch by tapping it. He gets to the parking lot, hops into a Tesla and reverses effortlessly out of his parking space. You wouldn't have even known his car was on for the lack of an engine noise!

You look back at your tech and shiver.
