“I’m so astonished by the last 30 years that it’s hard to imagine what might blow our minds in the next 30. That’s how pervasive technology has become for many of us." ~~Karen Wickre, editorial director, Twitter
Good Morning Folks,
As you know I am in the thick of it at ALA where we are about to make news. So I'll make this brief and ask you to stay tuned to our live Twitter and Linked In updates where I promise to keep you posted. Meanwhile….
In keeping with the ALA theme "An Education & Networking Mosaic" designed to move the business of law forward, and FSO's own mission to (re)IMAGINE a future that is very different from today— I call your attention to TED2014 theme “The Next Chapter."
TED asked some of the world's leading thinkers to opine on what might radically change society, life, technology and so on in the next 30 years. From funny and wry to deeply insightful, the answers will surprise you.
One idea I hope comes to fruition is from Doreen Lorenzo, president, Quirky. She predicts: “What will blow my mind in the next 30 years is the ability to diagnose a disease before you know that something is wrong with you, treat it with medicines designed specifically for you and eradicate it so it never happens again. The concept of connected health, wearable technology and ingested medicines are all pointing us in that direction. The ability for someone to tie it all together, tailored for the individual is mind-blowing.”
How will our lives be different in the not-so-distant future? See all of the insightful presentations (26 Ideas From The Future) HERE.
I hope you are feeling great and having a personal, passionate, productive week. I look forward to seeing you soon.
Love Life!
