Nokia: Life in 2015

Nokia The Way We Live Next 3.0
Nokia astounded us before with their idea of “The way we live next,” including the Morph Concept. And really it makes sense, every company has their idea of the way the future is going to look, and they shape their strategic visions around those beliefs.
Well Nokia believes that in 2015 we will all be connected to the cloud, and clearly for Nokia that cloud will be, at least in part, based on the OVI set of services. Clearly in the next 5 years we will all have high speed connections able to transmit audio/video feeds at low cost. The ideas are really interesting, and I especially liked the TV teleconference with your friends in other parts of the world.
I can’t help but think that the technology is progressing too fast in order for culture and lifestyle to catch up. I’m a little worried that soon enough we will be interacting only through electronic devices, and have long distance relationships, in virtual worlds, with people we rarely see in person. Of course various aspects of our beliefs will come into view and go under scrutiny, and I just hope that the end will be a happy society, and not a sci-fi thriller of technology destroying humanity as we know it.
The video is, sadly, just a home video camera recording of the presentation, but if I see the real video I’ll replace it here.
