Reddit reviews The Inevitable: Understanding the 12 Technological Forces That Will Shape Our Future

Here are some of my suggestions

1. The Inevitable: Understanding the 12 Technological Forces That Will Shape Our Future
   
2. Gates Notes - collection of reviews by Bill Gates himself. All of them aren't of Business nature, nevertheless interesting point of view. Look at book Capitalism without Capital
   
3. Mind your decisions - nice blog about Game Theory and its application in day to day life
   

I have actually read that book! It's great!

I actually agree with you... 50 years was a little much haha but it gets you thinking...

Also, a book I recommend is Inevitable: Understanding Technological Forces That Will Shape Our Future by Kevin Kelly (founder of Wired Magazine)...It basically is this thought experiment that I described. He outlines 12 forces that he believes are 'inevitable' (which I mostly agree with). Supurb read.
