People are naming it the Third Wave the Information Age etc. but I would say those are basically technological descriptions and this next shift is not about technology - although obviously it will be influenced and in some cases expressed by technologies.
Aereo is the first potentially transformative technology that has the chance to give people access to broadcast television delivered over the Internet to any device large or small they desire. No wires no new boxes or remotes portable everywhere there's an Internet connection in the world - truly a revolutionary product.
What is needed now is a transformation of the major systems of production more profound than even the sweeping post-World War II changes in production technology.
I am fascinated by all the new technology that creates places for us to meet in what is called cyberspace. I understand what it must have meant for the rebellions in the 19th century especially in 1830 and 1848 when the mass circulated newspaper became so important for the spreading of information.
We had to address information technology in the ways we had not before and give the agents the tools that they need to do their job more efficiently and more expeditiously.
Performance capture is a technology not a genre it's just another way of recording an actor's performance.
It is impossible to work in information technology without also engaging in social engineering.
The number one benefit of information technology is that it empowers people to do what they want to do. It lets people be creative. It lets people be productive. It lets people learn things they didn't think they could learn before and so in a sense it is all about potential.
The reason is that till date in spite of advances in information technology and strategies of information the written word in the form of books still remains one of humanity's most enduring legacies.
There is an enormous market demand for information. It just has to be fulfilled in a way that fits with the technology of our times.
In today's knowledge-based economy what you earn depends on what you learn. Jobs in the information technology sector for example pay 85 percent more than the private sector average.
It's hard to pay attention these days because of multiple affects of the information technology nowadays. You tend to develop a faster speedier mind but I don't think it's necessarily broader or smarter.
It's impossible to move to live to operate at any level without leaving traces bits seemingly meaningless fragments of personal information.
Getting information off the Internet is like taking a drink from a fire hydrant.
All of the books in the world contain no more information than is broadcast as video in a single large American city in a single year. Not all bits have equal value.
Everybody gets so much information all day long that they lose their common sense.
The teacher of history's work should be ideally not simply a description of past cultures but a performance of the culture in which we live and are increasingly taking our being.
No voice teacher can be all things to all people. You have to gain information from whatever sources you can. You have to listen.
Teaching is the only major occupation of man for which we have not yet developed tools that make an average person capable of competence and performance. In teaching we rely on the 'naturals ' the ones who somehow know how to teach.
A variety of national and international studies indicate that the broad-based deployment of information technology can have a substantial impact on our nation's economic productivity and growth as well as the educational and social success of our citizens.
In the end you make your reputation and you have your success based upon credibility and being able to provide people who are really hungry for information what they want.
A coach once told me there are four factors that determine a players' performance: his tactical awareness his physical condition his technical ability and his mental strength.
I'm a father of four so whenever I'm not working my kids have their different sports or plays or school performances so I don't do a whole lot of other stuff besides being a dad.
I also developed an interest in sports and played in informal games at a nearby school yard where the neighborhood children met to play touch football baseball basketball and occasionally ice hockey.
