The Lifelong Learner         by Stanley Kubasek | About Me |

Technology is advancing very fast. Just look back couple of years: a lot of things changed. What's in store for 2006? I personally think that we're up for a super-fast internet -- coming from a fiber-optic connection (see my previous artice on it, Fiber To Your Home) -- that will enable us to watch HDTV, make super-high quality video calls, and more. Much more, actually. It, eventually, will become like an industry of its own. I think this technology will be in the driver's seat in 2006. What else? I could find other technologies like that, but I found an excellent article from a Popular Mechanics magazine that lists the 15 New Concepts that will come to fruition in 2006. Excellent article.

What are some of the most exciting technologies listed there?
- Internet Protocol Television (IPTV)
- NAND Flash Memory
- Micro Fuel Cells
- Coal Gasification
- FIBER-TO-THE-HOME
- Mobile WiMAX
