I'm not quite sure i'll be in front of the line for this one! What do you think?
from www.stuff.co.nz:
The man regarded as one of the founding fathers of the internet is in the country - and he says the future of the web is in our bodies and in outer space.
Vint Cerf, vice-president and "chief internet evangelist" of tech giant Google, foresees the introduction of internet capability to existing neural interface technology such as cochlear implants, allowing, as an example, web radio played direct from computer to brain.
He is also involved in work to send internet infrastructure into space to create "a communications backbone between space-faring nations".
Cerf predicts the falling cost and rising sophistication of programmable devices will allow the internet to be widely embedded in inanimate objects, leading to revolutions in automated shipping and inventory control.
Some of these capabilities are already starting to be realised: Cerf's wine cellar is internet- enabled, sending him a text message when temperature and humidity levels become unfavourable.
