The Social Web of Things

Ericsson believes that in the Networked Society, more than 50 billion things will be connected, in order to make our lives and our businesses more efficient and more enjoyable.
Hi, Great to get your comments. Predictions are never easy. The idea of this film is that connected things make life easier. Our research shows that people love social networks and having things connect "socially" is easy and usable.
Example: The lights should be off while we are at work. If we forget, the house does it for us. Our car is friends with our media store and downloads new music that we like. Simple technology that we control. The ending of the film is "..to be continued". Perhaps AFTER this video ends, David gets a haircut. Perhaps he called Sophia back and they go out for a drink?

I can see the thinking behind this:

"Let's liken our customers to an annoying hipster git who lives in a smug house and who, given the chance, will turn down the chance of a real human relationship in favour of take-away food and football."

BRILLIANT! You've done it again stupid advertising agency!

I dont think that the homes will be able to do this BEFORE THE CARS drive on their own. I think it is close to come the day cars will selfdrive us anywhere.

This video reminds me so much of Ray Bradbury, even more so because its a commercial band unintentionally demonstrates the dangerous implications of surrendering the human experience to technology
