Assuming the future…
Posted by Mikhail Esteves under: General .
Seth Godin has something interesting titled Five years from now
Assume that:
- Hard drive space is free
- Wifi like connections are everywhere
- Connections speeds are 10 to 100 times faster
- Everyone has a digital camera
- Everyone carries a device that is sort of like a laptop, but cheap and tiny
- The number of new products introduced every day is five times greater than now
- Wal-Mart’s sales are three times as big
- Any manufactured product that’s more than five years old in design sells at commodity pricing
- The retirement age will be five years higher than it is now
- Your current profession will either be gone or totally different
What then?
