With surprising accuracy, Nicholas Negroponte predicts what will happen with CD-ROMs, web interfaces, service kiosks, the touchscreen interface of the iPhone and his own One Laptop per Child project. (this was in 1984, mind you!)

I read Nicholas Negroponte’s “Being Digital” in 1999 while writing a legal paper in mass communications on music sampling, digital downloads (mp3) etc. I was struck by his forethought of what technology could become years before it happened. This guy is awesome. Watch this video and read up on Negroponte, you will not be disappointed.
