The web is only 5,000 days old – Kevin Kelly on predicting the next 5,000 days

The Web is only 5,000 days old.  Kevin Kelly’s reading of the next 5,000 days he summarizes as;

There is only One machine.
The web is its OS.
All screens look into the One.
No bits will live outside the web.
To share is to gain.
Let the One read it.
The One is us.
Kevin Kelly

Curiously mystical?  I wonder what the connection here is with Eckhart Tolle?

Kelly of course discussing the web in terms of it becoming our ‘global brain’, but doesn’t mention that this phenomenon was coined by Peter Russell in 1984 – now that was a truly inspired prediction!
