Product Description:
Massively Networked is not just another book on social media; it gets to the heart of surprising changes that are rattling assumptions about health, work, the home environment, politics, the economy, and our place in the global ecosystem. Consider the following radical ideas that could soon reshape your life:
o Going shopping may become obsolete, along with closets, cabinets, and freezers thanks to the rise of virtualization, collaborative consumption, and just-in-time production.
o Making a living can take on new meaning as online currencies, fundraising platforms, at-home manufacturing, crowdsourced design, and DIY spaces open doors to rethinking your worklife
o How you understand you place in the global ecosystem can shift radically as an estimated 22 billion nonhuman agents, such as bridges, bicycles, and even oceans, join the two-billion-plus people online in the next decade.
Massively Networked brings these scenarios and more to life using real-world examples that are in market now or have working prototypes. The stores are sparks to light the imaginative fire to inspire you to create the world you want.
