A friend of mine came up with an awesome site, with much interesting stuff on it.. I thought that I could share it with you guys ^^ You might find it fun to read as well. Practically, the site gives you an image of what has happened in our society the past 11 years (since 2000), and what will happen (according to them) until we're in the year 10.000 ^^ http://www.futuretimeline.net/ Some examples of interesting titles I've found: 2010 - Speech-to-speech translation is common in mobile phones 2012 - Brain-computer interfaces allowing the paralysed to walk again - Mars Science Laboratory explores the Red Planet 2013 -Iran carries out its first nuclear test 2020 - World energy crisis - Texting by thinking - Holographic TV is mainstream I won't spoil everything, this is just the beginning. Just go and give it a look ^^
Indeed ^^ Most of the predictions have some sort of truth in them, at least the ones in the near-future do ^^ Haven't reached the year 10.000 yet
It was a weatherman (meteoroligist?) that proved the process of plate tectonics ^^ so don't be prejudiced sometimes they dó know something ^^
