Top 5 Technologies that will Change the world
We saw television era which gave a new dimension to advertisement and entertainment. Now, it is the age of infotainment with internet, e-books, e-book reader, laptops and other hand-held mobile information fetching devices. What is next in 2010?
Though, you would keep on listing but I will list only 5 technologies in 2010 that will change the way we look at the world.
1. Internet-Phone (VOIP)
“Voice over Internet Protocol” or internet-phone is a technology which is highly underrated and its security irreverently criticised. Google Voice and Skype have also got good response.
Though mobile network providers would have to face a cut-throat competition with the VOIP services, the conflict between these two models of communication will end once we have more and more VOIP services running in our mobile devices.
2. Online TV in 2010
It is almost the same situation here too, the already ubiquitous TV sets worldwide may become a thing of the past if Online TV plays a significant role in future and this would be really interesting to observe what happens to TV manufactures.
There are already many commercial channels shifting their attention from TV to Youtube or other sites like Hulu. Further, Google have already announced its paid content over Youtube and the new video advertising technology.
Along with TV, advertising also has to make its way to the eco-system and we already know of many rumors over Apple and Google coming with ways to prevent viewers from skipping the ads. This provides great opportunity for TV Channels to enter into the Internet.
3. Cloud Computing
Google has a big role to play here; with the advent of Chrome OS and more and more netbooks you won’t have to carry your vital computer files along with you. Cloud computing will be the new way of doing business over the internet. It will be more of virtual resources management, where company can optimize his/her resources according to needs and dynamic adaption to changes. This will allow companies to greatly enhance their products and services.
4. Augmented Reality
Pranav Mistry’s Sixth sense is only an example to this. Augmented Reality is going to blow people’s mind; with the help of mobile computing, GPS technology, mobile camera and Google maps, mobile applications are going to have much more power to bring the experience to the user than in past.
The gap between physical reality and virtual reality would lessen and result in to an era of seamless technological interfaces.
5. Mobile Banking (Internet Banking)
There was a age of barter system, then paper money and now plastic money. We surely need to get rid of credit cards and debit cards. They have already become less attractive in terms of monetary transaction. Once mobile phones starthandling our financial details, we will see a huge potential for mobile transactions and mobile banking.
Mobile and web application programmers have geared up to this call and this would truly change the way we bank!
