GOOGLICIOUS & the 'Would Be' Future





I luv Google...

Most of their products and services have made their way into my everyday life and the lives of many more as well.

If you have a question, just ask Mr. Google, he knows every thing...kind of like the wizard of Oz.

The internet has never been the same after they showed up. 

I've been using most of what they have to offer so far, and still they never cease to amaze me with new innovations that really do make life simpler. 

My contacts, calendars, notes, tasks, Emails, and basically all my communications have become more organized and efficient, saving me from a lot of frustration that I use to go through.

A simple sync and all my devices have the same info on them, no matter what device and which sadistic platform provider is behind it (even the dreaded Bill Gates Windows).

And the open source android operating system has been popping up all over the place.

TVs, mobiles, PCs, and a lot more, have been moving towards adopting the system since it is really flexible and friendlier than some other counterparts. 

All you need is a good internet connection (I’m not gonna start talking about the one in this country) and you feel like you are in one of those robot forklifts that Sigourney Weaver was using in the movie Aliens, and you can even understand what ChubaKa from Starwarsis saying.

So what are the mad scientist at Google going to come up next?

Maybe a brain implant that would directly download emails into your brain: P 

It's just a prediction, but with all what has been happening in the telecom industry lately, I think that we will be depending on the internet more than we can imagine. 

I think that the next generation of mobiles and phones will depend on internet connections rather than cell towers and their waves. 

your calls, messages, emails, reminders, and notifications (even if it was your smart home trying to tell you that the dog is digging in you tulip garden again) will all reach you over the internet and using the coverage of wifi or any other similar or upcoming technology that put the vast web under your fingertips.

Who knows, we might even be lucky enough to witness Masamune Shirow's futuristic anime world become a reality during our life time, where the internet is developed to a stage where we ourselves are even connected to it.

Till then, try to train your dogs to dig somewhere else and hope that the next time Chubaka speaks, some crazy fan would already have a subtitle available... or maybe it's already there....Hmmmm let me Google it ;)

Here's to a better tomorrow... 

Cheers,
