2020 Vision of Computing



Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project published the results of a survey in the future of computers.

Here is the summary of the report:
 
“By 2020, most people won’t do their work with software running on ageneral-purpose PC. Instead, they will work in Internet-basedapplications such as Google Docs, and in applications run fromsmartphones. Aspiring application developers will develop for smartphonevendors and companies that provide Internet-based applications, becausemost innovative work will be done in that domain, instead of designingapplications that run on a PC operating system.”

Several issues still need to be solved in the next 10 years - privacy, security, and bandwidth.
