“…The Internet of Things should be more akin to the benign aspects of the always-available Internet portrayed by science fiction writers such as William Gibson and Samuel Delaney. Information from lots of sources — websites, media creators, libraries, universities, satellites, road sensors, red-light cameras, and so on — is accessible for querying and correlation. You also have control over your own devices, such as activating your home alarm from the airport or catching up on your DVR’s recordings. This is already happening, in ad hoc ways — and that’s good.”—[via: InfoWorld]
