The first part of the speech was about statistic presentation...
You can say that in the near future until year 2035, the following things will happen..
The problem is that there is no standardization effort and Google attempts to solve that. If successful, this will be the stepping stone for integrating the Internet (in the world) towards the outer space (solar system).

This is the summary of the speech given by Dr Vinton Cerf, Chief Internet Evangelist,Google Inc. The plenery hall L1 was fully anticipated and it was such a great finale for WCIT 2008. It even caught delegates standing by the side of the hall.
The first part of the speech was about statistic presentation...
- How many Internet users are there according to regions ..
- What would happen by the year 2035 ?
You can say that in the near future until year 2035, the following things will happen..
- Things will get faster and faster, there will be more population in the world and hence you need things like IPv6 and good search engines and etc ... People will earn less money and business model will have to adapt to changes. Since the Internet will become faster and people to earn less, more time will be spent on the Internet. As a result, the future of Internet is anything and everything that it should be because you will have more for less and less for more and life goes on.
- Semantic Webs
- Complex Object-Orientation Computing
- BIT Rot - preserving old softwares to interpret old binary data
The problem is that there is no standardization effort and Google attempts to solve that. If successful, this will be the stepping stone for integrating the Internet (in the world) towards the outer space (solar system).
