Making Sense of Technology

My intention to start this blog is to make sense of many technological changes taking place in our society and to understand what impacts these can bring to the world around us. I am following IT industry from the time Netscape Navigator rose to the prominence, reached its pinnacle and died silently. In last decade, technology has become enabler for every business, it changed the way businesses used to be done. The last decade has been a decade of 'Just in Time' manufacturing, global supply chains, online shopping marts, powerful search engines and so on.

The objective of this blog is to envision the role technology is going to play in the coming decade or so. Now with high speed broadband & idevices world is going to be highly interconnected in time to come. This is the age of true democracy where 20 % of Brazilians use twitter, and this number is going to move in only one direction only. Not only Democratic countries are participating in this transformation, everybody from Kremlin to Chinese is part of this revolution.

In web 1.0 the purpose was to put information on the net so that it would be accessible to everyone. The web 2.0 is all about social networking. It leverages on the social/emotional urge to connect with your friends. This blog will help you understand how the Web 3.0 may look like.


This blog will rarely provide you with the 'facts' or 'news', but with the perspective or conclusion which can be drawn from the 'information-laden' world of technology.
