Just think, in 10 years we'll be making fun of the newbies and saying things like "Remember the old proboard?"  --A |

Wonder what the internet will look like in 10 years... Well I'm guessing the internet will be so personal that one person's experience will be quite different than another's. I'm guessing that most internet interaction will be completely wireless and mobile, giving a person a wide selection of displays including a HUD that will appear before you in some fashion. I can imagine someone surfing the net while walking through the mall. Personal collisions will rise to an all time high resulting in people adopting the slang contraction "Em" standing in for "Excuse Me". ;D |

Personal collisions...hahaha!!! That must already be happening with all the text-messaging people do on their cell phones, Blackberries, etc.
(But I think "texting" is a blessing in disguise for movie-goers: I could sit in peace and watch the movie and phone addicts could sit and text to their heart's content without disturbing me.)

On this point we are in complete agreement. There is generally no noise associated with texting...except when some dink types something really amusing and he can't help but laugh aloud. Outside of that it's all good. |

Happy anniversary to Glurpworld I didn't realize it was so young ;D Yeah we're still pretty much in the infant stage. Statistically speaking most message boards die out in the first year of life. Only the strong survive into adulthood. We're quite fortunate to have avoided being eaten by a predator. ;D |
