A New "Transportation Age" ???

Jeff Cornwall thinks the next big engine of economic growth in America will be a new era of innovation in transportation.

What shape it may take is not clear. It never really is clear anytime we are in a time of revolutionary change. In the beginning of the information age we had no idea which companies or even which technologies would prevail in the market. Who would have guessed twenty years ago that I would be sitting today on my back porch typing into a machine on my lap that through a wireless connection can broadcast my words all over the globe?

The information age is still an exciting part of our world and will be for some time to come. But, it is inevitable that the breakthroughs will begin to slow down enough so that this segment of the economy will no longer be the main engine of growth.

... Change and chaos creates entrepreneurial opportunity. The potential crisis of supply of fossil fuels and the complete inefficiency of our current transportation systems just oozes opportunity.

Read the whole thing. His wheels are turning.

Me, I just want a flying car.

I used to want the flying cars, ever since I was a kid flipping through Popular Mechanics.

But now I'm to the point where I want those little nanobots that'll drill through my arteries removing plaque and eating up excess cholesterol. Different times, different priorities.

Although driving a flying car while nanobots happily did their job would be pretty awesome.
