A Brave New Wonderful World

Alright guys, lets start this multipost piece off with the Pros, shall we?

Picture living in a world where no matter where you are in the physical realm, you have every single thing you need right with you.
The Apple iPhone is making huge leaps and bounds with this. Through their App Store you can get almost anything you need, as long as your connected. The Android OS is bringing a whole new realm to this, and I feel will effectively separate the technically skilled from the plain and simple consumers. But that's a subject for another post.

You understand every language as its spoken to you.
There are already multiple sites, including Google Translator that let you translate almost anything instantly as you need it. I can even have this blog translated as i post it into any language i want. (Even Hindi)

You have no need for physical money, and there's no such thing as a "national currency"
There are pioneering bussiness professionals in Africa and other developing nations that are developing ways to transfer large amounts of money, securely via text message. Revolutionary.

Seems like a utopia, right? all because of a magical world that's even more advanced that the internet is today.
