The Internet of Things
IBM's Smarter
Planet team has created a great 5 minute video (below) explaining the emerging trend of Internet of Things, an exciting topic
ReadWriteWeb has and
will continue to cover frequently and in depth. Internet of Things
is about, as the video explains, the coming future when there are more
"things" on the Internet (sensors especially) than there are people.
The result of that will be "a kind of global data field" the video
says. "If we can actually begin to see the patterns in the data, then
we have a much better chance of getting our arms around this. That's
where societies become more efficient, that's where more innovation is
sparked." Check out this artistic, succinct, optimistic and inspiring
video explaining what could well become a big factor in how the future
unfolds.
