A few weeks back, I wrote a post about Understanding the Changing Web Economy. That post was the seed thought behind a lot of thinking I’ve been doing lately and a topic submission I made for WordCamp Atlanta. Today’s post continues that thought as we look at the future of web browsing.
There have been a number of posts now on jtrigsby.com about the end of the personal computer. My wife and I had a great discussion about this very topic last night. As we continue to shrink the footprint of the devices that enable access to the vast content of the web, the way we browse that content is changing as well. Rapidly vanishing are the days or evenings spent sitting behind the monitor in the corner of the living room or spare bedroom. Today you’re just as likely to be on the bus, waiting in line for lunch, or stopped in traffic. The volume of sources that we scan regularly has grown as well, giving rise to a boon of applications designed to sync our bookmarks or make remembering all those sites easier.
