As We May Think
Vannevar Bush was the director of his office and coordinated an immense amount of activities. He wrote the essay, "As We May Think" a while back. Bush made predictions as to what he thought would happen in a few years from now and I thought they seemed to be pretty accurate. He also talked about flaws that he saw in some forms of technologies. Computers, as well as phones and cameras too are all forms of technology that we use on a daily basis and don't even think twice about. He looked at where science was going and then made very good guesses as to what would happen in the future and I found it very interesting that he was able to do this. He may not have known where everything was coming from or what exactly it would entail but he was the FIRST to bring this up.
