Here's an articulate and prescient article from one of the lead architects at Microsoft on the state of technology...and society.
An excerpt:
Without a doubt, as in 1939 there are conditions in our society today that breed uncertainty: jobs, housing, health, education, security, the environment...
And yet, even in the presence of so much uncertainty, I feel an acute sense of hope and optimism.
When I look forward, I can’t help but see the potential for a much brighter future: Even beyond the first billion, so many more people using technology to improve their lives, businesses and societies, in so many ways. New apps, services & scenarios in communications, collaboration & productivity, commerce, education, health care, emergency management, human services, transportation, the environment, security – the list goes on, and on, and on.
