Presentation

It’s the End of the Web as We Know It (And I Feel Fine!)

Track: Higher education
Conference Day #1, Wednesday May 4th, 10.15 am - 11.00 am

We've come a long way from binary numbers and machine language. Technology marches on. As Moore’s law collides with Metcalfe’s law, the Web we see today and the devices we use to access it will become unrecognizable.

Will the promise of the social Web, the mobile Web, the semantic Web, and the real-time Web be fully realized? Will the singularity become reality? What are the implications of ubiquitous computing? It may be time to rethink a few things.

Completely updated for 2011, this award-winning presentation will focus on the (r)evolution of the Web and the implications for higher education Web professionals.
