When Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone he pitched it as a broadcast device – that it was for putting on a stage in front of a musician or sermon in order to broadcast it to the world. He had no idea he’d invented a two-way communication device and revolutionized how we could communicate with each other. At Mind the Product 2013 Paul Adams showed that we are at the same stage today with the internet – and outlined what he thinks the next steps are.
He shared his insights from 4 years in the depths of Silicon Valley, the trends shaping the internet of the future and a new way to approach and think about it – a network of information about anyone, anything, available anywhere, anytime.
The future is already here, it’s just not evenly distributed -William Gibson
