When my son asks me to pause the TV so he can go potty or call is Papa while we are driving down the road or to go to the Pixar website so he can play a game, I can’t help but wonder what kind of technology will be available to him in ten, twenty, thirty, and even forty years from now. I’ve already posted about wireless power and controlling computers with your brain

Now there is a new version of the internet being developed for massively increased speeds. It is called Interent2 and it boasts the ability to transfer data up to 100Gps. Yes, that is gigabytes. Let’s put that in perspective. Right now, the fastest DSL/Cable line most people have in there house is about 6Mbs. So…Interenet2 has the potential to be more than 16,000 times faster than what we are used to today. That is in the range to ten HD movies downloaded in one second or copy from every book ever written sent around the world in a matter of minutes. As instant as the world is now, it has got nothing on what is coming.
