Elon University

A vision for the future

This is one of nearly a thousand foresight statements shared by people from around the world. To return to the Voices of the People home page or to refine your search, click here.

Name: Andy

From: Ohio

Bio: Internet fanatic

Area of Expertise: Futurist/Consultant

Topic: Getting, Sharing Information

Headline: The Internet will control everything

Nutshell: Everyone will work, share information, communicate through, and obtain entertainment through the Internet.

Vision:

The Internet is already much of what I have said above, but will become much much more in the future. For example, communication is already one of the biggest reasons people use the Internet today, but there are still other forms of communication (snail mail, land line, etc). One day these other methods will become extinct (except for post… unless of course there comes a way to teleport online purchases from warehouse to home).
