Technology and Change

I have worked in Information Technology for over 40 years, starting my career with IBM in 1967. I believe Technology and Change are almost synonymous. Despite the changes I have seen in my 40 years, the rate of change is accelerating and the impact on society will be huge. In the last 5 years alone, the use of the internet, personal devices, and social networking have exploded. What about inthe next 5 years? Is technology going too fast for us to keep up? I see, not to far away, that we will be able to put a chip in our body and have access to any information and to any body AT ALL TIMES, i.e., permanently connected to the world. The implications are awesome. Now, we have to figure out how to control it. They need a few "switches" in that chip: on/off, pause, filter, and on and on. Also, the implications to privacy might be a little scary, but I'm not sure we have privacy today.
I was pointed to your sight by a networking group with the understanding that the above is the kind of issue you look at (plus many others). THAT IS WHY I AM HERE!
