Hi Futurists, Blogpost with links: http://www.futuresalon.org/2008/09/future-salon-op.html It was at a Foresight event that I met John Smart who convinced me...
Hello all. If you haven't already heard, I'm back in Berkeley again, at least until the election, and I look forward to seeing all of you at the next Salon. ...
... I'm in Colorado, but I'll reply to your essay anyway :) ... Our friend here in Boulder, Doug Robertson, uses the term "phase change" to describe this...
... Actually, that link only appears to affirm (at the bottom) that his *definition* of the term is based on an event horizon, not on greater-than-human...

... I thought I was using your definition, as implied from the list of web/internet apps you provided. ... I guess we need a definition of killer app. I was...
... Sorry, I thought I was being clear on definitions. A "killer app" is an application so compelling that people will buy the hardware to get it. The original...
Right now the 'killer apps" are on the iPhone, it's this year's hot market where a lot of innovation is happening, and its compelling enough for people to get...
