Where Are The Flying Cars?
It seems that if you want to live in the semi-open neighborhood of the technology-enabled social space your Home Owners Agreement includes a clause that you have to weigh in on Social Media. Here’s mine…
What is the future of Social Media?
Who the hell knows?
I’ve been having a lot of conversations with folks telling me that SM is a fad. Other say it’s the next steam engine. Others say it will be just another marketing tool.
If history is any predictor - it will be will be different than I think. It will be different than what most people think. It will be different than any logical extrapolation of current facts and figures.
It will be different.
Why? Because we don’t have flying cars. That’s why. We were promised flying cars by Popular Science magazine from the 1950’s forward and we still don’t have them.
Why?
‘Cuz the future is never what you think it will be.
The future is always something else. Don’t predict it. Live it. Be a part of it and hope (fingers crossed) that you’re somewhere close to where reality and fantasy collide.
That’s my plan.
