“ It’s a place where your refrigerator could be connected to the Internet, so it could order groceries when they ran low. Your dinner plate could post to a social network what you’re eating. Your robot could go to the office while you stay home in your pajamas. And you could, perhaps, take an elevator to outer space. These are just a few of the dreams being chased at Google X, the clandestine lab where Google is tackling a list of 100 shoot-for-the-stars ideas.”
These are the dreams of agoraphobic over-sharers who want to get back to disruption free programming.
Either our future selves are the most boring people alive or Google needs to hire an anthropologist.
