During the next five years there will be a revolution in the way individuals shop for products and services and receive and engage in entertainment and education. Collaborative game playing and education, with participants all over the world, will take place. Home shopping with multimedia presentations of products personalized to the customer will be the norm. Companies will effortlessly be able to exchange complex engineering drawings with voice annotation, and video conferencing will support full integration of picture, voice and computing, so that physically dispersed meetings can be conducted as if everyone were in the same room with direct access to computing.
