Kevin Kelly analysis

Considering how much has already been accomplished, it is very surprising to learn that the web has only been around for 5000 days. Since that time we have accomplished so much, such as finding different ways to communicate with people across the world. It is near impossible to imagine what the next 5000 days will bring us.

I think the most interesting aspect that Kelly talks about is his idea that everything will eventually go through the web. This includes phones, businesses and television. The Internet, it seems, will control our lives, if it hasn't already happened. To do this, the web will have to keep up with all of this demand.

The one thing that I do disagree with is how Kelly claims that the human race could not have lived without technology. I will admit, that now with the introduction technology to the human race, we probably won't be able to survive. However, this does not mean that if we were not first introduced to it, we would not be able to survive. Many species, who are unable to even come close to our achievements, have survived longer than we are. However, as a species we adapted to a point where it is now a necessity for us. The problem comes when we become too dependable on machines, the human race will no longer need the ability to think for itself.
