Recommendation

Are you ready to become a “biological networked appliance”? That’s the next big thing, according to Scott Snyder, technology maven and scenario planner. He predicts a device-filled future, offering remarkable digital simulations, Internet “bots” filtering out data that doesn’t fit your interests, and a digital network that will surround, monitor and cater to you. Welcome to the wonderful world of 4G wireless. As fanciful as it sounds, such a future is just around the corner, for your company as well as yourself, thanks to advances in wireless technology, artificial intelligence and biotechnology. Snyder explains how organizations should plan for 4G and what it portends. getAbstract recommends Snyder’s thorough report and analysis to CEOs, information technology executives and anyone who wants to prepare for the radically new world of wireless.

  • New 4G, or fourth generation, technology will change how people use wireless.
  • Future wireless devices, the descendents of today’s smart phones and netbooks, will be extremely fast, powerful tools.
