The Year is 2011...

It's a great retrospective on the technology leaps we've made since the new century began, and it got me thinking about the difference today's technology will make in the lives of tomorrow's kids.

Travel Agents-Its been decimated by the internet.
Separation of Work and Home-E-mailed equipped computer. Not just friends and family that can find you but your boss.
Books, magazines, and newspapers-People born today will not see exist Book Stores.
Watches-just a piece of jewelry, but the correct time will be on your smart phone.
Paper Maps-Gone!
Wired Phone-Why pay $35.00 month for something to stick into the wall
Long Distance Service-Why pay for extra, you have it on your cell, smart and I-phones for the next city, state or country.
Newspaper Classifieds & Magazines-Days are gone when you have to buy a bunch of newsprint just to see whats for sale.
Dial up Internet-Not everyone is on a broadband, it won't be long before dial-up internet goes the way of the plug in phone.

CD's-First records, then 8-tracks, cassette, then CD's-Replacing music will be as close as your nearest internet connection.
Film Cameras-Gone-Even digital cameras-both video and still- are in danger of extinction as our pocket computers take over that function too.
