Prediction, in context:In a 1995 article for the journal Government Technology, Blake Harris takes a look at the future of the Internet, quoting Rick Schremp of the University of Colorado. Harris writes: ”Schremp’s program at the University of Colorado has been pulling together the cumulative experiences of government use of cyberspace from around the world. It offers seminars for government leaders to assist them to begin using cyberspace to deliver better, more cost-effective services not in the future, but right now. ‘Like bank ATMs, people will start to use cyberspace-based government services if they make interaction with government easier and faster,’ said Schremp.”
