News You Can Bruise for 2007 June 10

Permalink [Comments] (3) Sun Jun 10 2007 23:16 The Future: A Retrospective:

I've started a new pseudo-weblog, called The Future: A Retrospective. It's based on a 1989 book of predictions about future consumer products. Every day I review another prediction and see what's happened to the people and technologies since 1989. Actually, that's what it looks like to you. In truth, most days I do absolutely nothing, and once in a while I fill in the backlog. Just like a webcomic!

I've seeded TF:AR with the first five items in the book, including the frickin' Smart House and one of my favorites, the Walking TV.

Cool. Are you familiar with the blog Paleo-Future? It's all about this kind of thing.

What does this book have to say about Dippin' Dots?

They are not mentioned, thankfully.
