Maybe somewhere in the world there is a genius planning right now something that will blow us away in 20-30 years.

I think it would be interesting to find out how often something really huge is discovered/invented. Maybe it has to pass some hundreds years in order to make a leap in technology.

On the other hand it may be true that the new ways of “socializing” prevent us from pursuing great goals and actually make us lose time. This is especially true for us, the people from the online industry.

Listen…In the first two paragraphs I’m totally agree with you.I saw SF series movies that talked about things and facts in years like 2002, for example, that would have never been happening.
However, this conception we have is because we tend to rely only on the material evolution, neglecting spiritual evolving. As you said, we do not need to get always on line connected, because by doing that we are renouncing little by little to the concept that says: “No man is an island.” People don’t talk as much as it needed and I mean real discussions.
As for the inventions…I don’t wanna play the nationalist kind (though loving isn’t country isn’t a sin, even if it’s named Romania), but I would’ve liked reading about a Romanian inventor, too, in your article. ;)

I don’t think geniuses will just pop up so fast. I don’t think because there are too many stupid ppl, the geniuses can’t just pop up, they are suffocated and they kinda lose hope.
Like you :).
