We couldn't help noticing a similarity to our work on the "Coming Exaflood." There's lots of great stuff in these reports, but one projection struck me as extremely conservative. Two-way video conferencing won't take off until 2015 or after? I doubt it will happen next year, but I also doubt it will take eight years. Anyway, Cisco's new 15 Mbps synchronous Telepresence videoconferencing system is apparently sci-fi awesome.
