	2015 | //misanthropy vs. society     Well, well. There are a lot of people who kept their misanthropic minds all the time in their head, they just can't understand many things the common society does or not. That "misanthropic" people can't stand others dealing superficially with anybody and generally they do not wanna hear any smattering again, cause that's the cradle of all dullness (and maybe even of all evil =) ). More and more people will see the spiritual might in THINKING, the business of dealing with yourself. Hm, i really don't hope so, but mabye "Finding Yourself" will be a common phrase in 2015 like "Feng Shui" nowadays (or the big joy of the western world: Pretending to be a Buddhist... ). Anyway, what I really hope and actually believe: The question "What's that system useful for we`re living in?" comes up and will lead people to back out of ordinary life. Maybe the big, modern trend will be some kind of individualism. Well, THAT will be probably the best trend we ever had till then. Yeah, some critical words of mine, thanks ;-)   posted by Thomas , on 12 AUG 2004 14:31:53 (UTC+01)   rate this: 62.82% (total 49) / 37.18% (total 29), post/view comments:   2015 | Windows     Windows XP working properly!   posted by flinn75 , on 10 AUG 2004 10:10:25 (UTC+01)   rate this: 46.58% (total 34) / 53.42% (total 39), post/view comments:   2015 | Gummi will come true     the bendable computer [1] will come true.

The task of programming the machine is beyond human ability, so it is instructed on how to program itself. It's first task is to create a database containing the sum of all human knowledge.   posted by Jerry McManus , on 01 SEP 2004 22:32:57 (UTC+01)   rate this: 66.67% (total 4) / 33.33% (total 2), post/view comments:   2015 | All over the world     In my predictions I wil talk in the domain of "all over the world" may be the advanced countries are wy ahead in comparision of my predictions, but i generally focused on what will happen all over the world. for eg dial-up conncetion is now common in the whole world but DSL is not reach yet in almost 60% of the globe. so 1. Internet is free by 2015 in the globe. 2. All type of manual entry will be forbidden. 3. We will not see the long ques in order to submit their license fee, challan or domestic bills. 4.Local telephone lines will be free. 5.Moile penetrates all over the world and its power will be exceeded to our pentium 4 procesor. 6.Suicidal rates will be higher. 7.Religion will spread all over the world. 8. Life will not be the precious thing in the eye of men. (reaction of violence games and movies) 9. The light colors will dominate in technological devices even in the third world countries. 10.90% of busines will transfer into the internet because the new generation(of our age) will control world   posted by Mubashir , on 02 SEP 2004 09:01:54 (UTC+01)   rate this: 80.00% (total 4) / 20.00% (total 1), post/view comments:   2015 | Politically & Culturally     Europe's population declines and influx of migrants spreads islam. Islamics start asserting themselves politically and culturally at places. This creates social unrest. Asia continues to grow economically with China, India, Japan leading. Russia grows in all dimensions and Putin is still Prez. Chechens were destroyed by him. Though they explode some bombs moscow. USA still is Superpower with or without Bush. China comes distant second. Though economically USA is more dependent on Asia now. Africa is still underdeveloped. And Middleast people keep fighting each other though chances of USA invading another country is high there.   posted by Amar , on 01 SEP 2004 15:34:48 (UTC+01)   rate this: 100.00% (total 4) / 0.00% (total 0), post/view comments:   2015 | Religions draw world into world war 3     Unfortunately the propagation of religion and the spread of anti-intelectualism in the US leads to the merging of religion and government, and escalates into a global religious conflict.   posted by A Palazzo , on 01 SEP 2004 21:21:47 (UTC+01)   rate this: 66.67% (total 2) / 33.33% (total 1), post/view comments:   2015 | Everybody knows     The song 'Everybody Knows' by Leonard Cohen continues to describe the state of the society accurately Students are still forced to read the dull works of Shakespeare and still find it horrfically boring and mundane Despite predictions of catacylsmic events that should've destroyed everything at least once every decade, humans continue to adapt and prosper Death is still inevitable   posted by Prashant , on 01 SEP 2004 14:32:33 (UTC+01)   rate this: 33.33% (total 1) / 66.67% (total 2), post/view comments:   2015 | New America     Native people from all over america get back what all white people have stolen from them, their freedom, their dreams, their ideals, theirs hearts that were leading them to a better life, a better way to live, a better wey to be without complications and worries, without goverments, living just to help the others and live sharing everything in harmony, just live we had to live, just like the way they live without time, knowing that you'll die and we want to live a word better of the one that we had... but remmenber the history is made by triumphants and winners not by the others.   posted by nicolas , on 03 SEP 2004 00:09:31 (UTC+01)   rate this: 66.67% (total 2) / 33.33% (total 1), post/view comments:   2015 | WALL SIZE TV's!!     With the advancement of OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) TV becomes wall size by imbedding OLEDs in wallpaper then applying the wallpaper to the wall like normal. OLED has also replaced LCD by this time for computer monitors that are now as thin as a sheet of paper and hand held roll-up newspapers that automatically download the news every day and display it on the bendable screen are being sold. Now comes the building sized commercial advertisements where the side of a building is one huge screen that can play commercials (as seen in Minority Report).
