New Technologies

I was thinking yesterday, about how easy it is nowadays to watch anime due to technological advancements, such as DVDs, and the Internet. We can watch almost instantly any anime episode we want, in a multitude of languages, whenever we want. While only about half a century ago this would be considered absurd, and impossible. The truth is the rate at which technology is advancing is staggering.
According to current information, every two years the processing power of computer doubles, and while chips increase their capacity they are continually getting smaller. They are now designing circuits on the nano-scale. This amazing enough, is still nothing when you consider it was predicted. In 1965, a man by the name of Gordon E. Moore saw this trend in computers and created a law stating that the amount of transistors that can be placed on a circuit doubles every two years. This is Moore's Law.
So getting back to the main point, I was thinking how technology would develop, and how we would communicate in the future (and potentially watch anime). Of coarse this all depends how far ahead you look, as more and more variables come into play. But there's one trend with almost anything new, especially technology, that will always stay the same. It will always start out expensive as demand is high, but as it becomes easier to manufacture, it gets cheaper. Also another thing to note is it has to be in the price range of the general public, the working class, to be a successful product. So basically, no matter how advanced technology gets, I don't think it will ever be too expensive, or too far ahead.
Now, lets say you look 10 years into the future. What do you see? Well I see something equivalent to a personal communication device which attaches to your ear to be "cellphone" norm. It would probably have the control devices (keyboard, mouse,etc.) on your arm, probably integrated right into your clothes, and only visible when you turn it on. This allows for both hands free, and light communication. Of coarse the downside is there is no screen to allow for visuals, so they might include an eyepiece attachment, somewhat like transition glasses except they can project images. Also I doubt nothing will happen to computers. Probably a huge increase in speed and power, which makes for faster Internet, better graphics, and a whole new level of memory. Might even get into the Petabyte range for PC memory. Next is 50 years into the future. Probably glove type communicators, with holographic screens, and precise sensors, which allow you to control it with hand and eye movement. It seems crazy I know, but so did personal computers. Probably by now, PCs will be handheld, and include at least a Zettabyte of storage. Things like virtual reality and robot maids, would be very common by then. Finally now, how about 100 years into the Future, what do you see? Well I don't believe there wouldn't be any more technological (communication) advance after that which would be considered exponential. However I can't even begin to imagine what things would be like by then. We might even reach a level 1 civilization! We could have integrated ourselves with technology, or even evolved out of the need to use technology for communication (telekinesis).
Well whichever way we develop and advance, It is sure to be amazing. I hope to be a part of that advancement as well, designing tools, and types of communication never thought of before (and probably a couple anime series by then as well ;p). The future starts now.
