The Internet of Things have been on the agenda for a few years. Lately some of the big companies started sharing their predictions how big the Internet will be. Cisco and Ericsson CEO predicts 50 billion devices by the year 2020.
IBM recently put it at 1 trillion connected devices by 2015, interestingly enough a number Cisco's own CTO Padmasree Warrior said will be reached by 2013.
Predictions aren't easy, even when working for the same company. Nevertheless, the Internet of Things is a big trend - and big business for Cisco, Ericsson, IBM and other companies.
It will happen, one way another even if the numbers or time period might differ.
The reason is best described by Ericsson CEO Hans Vestberg who in a keynote speach said: "All devices that can benefit from connectivity will be connected," - predicting that the world's nearly 5 billion mobile phone subscribers today will be surpassed by 50 billion connected non-phone devices in 10 years.
This is an amazing shot. It's well composed, got intresting lines and colours. Still, anyone can understatnd the concept.
Great architecture. Great photography.
This is why I love Flickr. Pure talent, if you know where to look.
The house of Harry is a building created to show art an to live in. It's also been promoted as one of Stockholm's new landmarks, like the Globe, if you know what I mean.
This building is odd, maybe low key but is not a landmark. Period!
Still, when placing a 200-or more three in front, it works. I used to work here. Now, our old office is gone. Sign of the times.
I shot this when visiting my new workspace. I will be the one in the red chair.
Shout if you like it.
Hugs!

I used to have this photo as my Icon on Flickr, FB and other places. Little did I know it was Albert Watson, who shot it. Now I do.
I don't like Fotografiska, so I only visit when my friends from out of Sthlm wants to.
Last sunday, Watson was displayed.
Last sunday, me was on display. ME, ME, ME!
I still believe Sarah Moon is trying to hard.
Pretty much, like myself. Still, she is awesome.
Me, I am.

I'm trying. Sometimes even I believe I got talent. Other times, I just wish I had some. This version needs some cropping!
Hi, I'm a smartphone user - Isn't it funny how you, me, both have turned into geeks over the last decade. Today I probably own more computers and gadgets than most geeks did in 2001. (smartphone's, screens, laptops, external, hard desk drives, digital cameras, computers, laptops, Ipods, cell phones, routers....you get the picture)
I guess XKCD has been crossing the chasm together with all those geeky products we all own and isn't just for the innovators and early adopters anymore.
I still love it ; )
I guess I had pinned David Bailey down with all the other fashion photographers of the time. As a good craftsmen. I also knew he was good at shooting portraits...then.
When I saw the TV-documentary about David Bailey, his lates works is as good as ever. The skulls and flowers and others are fantastic. It's refreshing to see someone so dedicated and passionate about his works after a lifetime, as Baliey is.
