DPP +1 :-)

I've done some more prep for this panel. Naval Ravikant the angel investor and author of the entrepreneur's bible at http://venturehacks.com/ is happy to help me out. I may get others, but I'll wait until it can be confirmed I have a panel.

In my research, I've come across a lot of cool technologies which I plan to incorporate in my presentation. Without giving too much away, here are some interesting links that will get you thinking:

Touchstreen that you don’t need to touch: http://bit.ly/4sUO67

Computer display floats in mid air: http://bit.ly/3FKmOy

Sensors in everything: http://bit.ly/1R4TyU

Broadband's future: http://bit.ly/1OSKGa

Project Natal: http://bit.ly/44tP6O

The 'sixth sense': http://bit.ly/2XYOr3

Long distance barcodes: http://bit.ly/2uCsce

Wireless electricity: http://bit.ly/3Xny2U and http://bit.ly/1DxYRZ

Contact lense with computing power: http://bit.ly/2LocH4

Wristwatch life recorder: http://bit.ly/12YWUA

Wifi now becoming more ubiquitous in a mesh networking kind of way: http://bit.ly/21yPNW

Broadband access now a legal right: http://bit.ly/2PIgde

And to give context to the above material, what I plan to cover for a good half of the proposed panel is what exists *today* and fully explaining what ubiquity means along the lines of connectivity ubiquity, computing ubiquity, and data ubiquity. By explaining it, it will fire up your imaginations as to the future like it has for me :)

Once I hook you on the drug that is our future :), I will direct the panel to explain what's missing in the progress towards ubiquity, and so the latter part of the panel will be examining what further innovation the web community can perform to achieve that (as it's a cultural issue, rather than a hardware issue).

It's really important to have panels like this at major conferences because there are always attendees who are new to this subject matter or need a refresher in it. Knowing that Elias is pulling it together, with his attention to detail, and that Naval is participating, means that the panel will cover the territory as promised and then some. Also, I suggest that there be some specific discussion about the real-time web and its role in the Information Age.

Kind words, thanks Mary!

You're completely right. I was think of real time as hype that really needs to settle down, but now that I think about it, real time access to information is really at the core of what I am talking about. Some more food for thought, appreciate it.

Elias is a fantastic speaker and I would love to hear his thoughts on this topic.

I admit i have a bias towards the subject in that i think it is a quite important one to address at a conference like sxsw- but saying that up front and having participated in many a discussion and participation on the subject this overview of what the session will cover sounds quite comprehensive. I have seen Elias speak on the subject multiple times and he is always concise and provocative in his analysis.

And thanks for the additional links in the comments! good reads to start thinking about this subject .

Just checked some of the links and ended up wasting 3 hours... very interesting stuff... look forward to the talk!
