Why didn't I realize that things would go this way earlier?
After the iPhone, everything should be touch screen.

So then I get curious and do a Google search for "touch screen computing". Which lead me to this:
Oh my god, the future is here...and it's cooler than anyone ever imagined!!!
I immediately saw a world where every surface is an interactive display. You wouldn't have to carry around a laptop, you'd just sit down at a bar and the bar itself would be a place for you to compute. All your files would be stored on a central database for you to access anywhere.
The most exciting thing about this is that it will happen in our lifetimes. I used to get so worked up about technology when I was a kid, but have lost interest as I've gotten older because it's seemed to me that technology has gotten too pervasive. We're all loaded down with laptops, cell phones, iPods, PDA's, etc. It's all too clunky. I feel like we've been relying too heavily on technology. But what if all this technology was a part of our environment and not gadgets that we had to carry around? Now that's something to get excited about.
