What a difference a decade make
10 times 10 years in tech
10 years ago we defined technology, now the technology defines us.
1. Cloud
10 years ago I drove under the clouds, now I work in the cloud.
2. Containers
In the morning: 10 years ago I put my container for garbage collecting, now I use containers for software.
3. Messaging
10 years ago we say what’s up, now we say WhatsApp.
4. Streaming
10 years ago we were watching linear, now we are binge-watching.
5. Bikes
10 years ago nobody drove faster on a bike than I do, now grandmas are passing me on e-bikes.
6. Flying
10 years ago you would be up there in the cloud, now I worry about my footprint.
7. Smartphones
10 years ago I didn’t have a smartphone, now I can’t imagine life without it (for good and worse).
8. Social media
10 years ago we thought 1984 was a book, now we are living inside this book.
9. Babysitting
10 years ago we had babysitters, now we have iPads.
10. Smart
10 years ago I was smart, now my devices are.
