On this day in 1847, the Chicago Tribune began publication. With the decline in newspaper circulation & change in people’s media consumption habits; take a few minutes to imagine what they’ll be saying about the internet in 161 years. The manner in which we access & interact with it currently will be so foreign by 2169; people will have a difficult time comprehending how what we do now was the norm. They won’t have to access anything because it will just be there; on demand & ready to fly. Who knows, it might not even be called the internet by that time.

Your work space & internet activity will be more Minority Report than contracts, notes, laptops, & smartphones. Astronauts will have already traveled to & from Mars, hopefully our dependence on oil will be minimal, the city of Philadelphia may have won a championship…let your mind wander for a bit. How do you think people will be interacting with each other & information more than half way through the twenty second century?
