 Hi, welcome to the future of the browser conference lightning talk. This is time machines how we all became time travelers of this decade My name is Chris Dancy if you go to Google right now, but in two words most connected I will pop right up Warning this entire lightning talk is going to be difficult for the temporarily sensitive I have a little bit of a coming out to do to you for you today. You see I'm not just the world's most connected person I'm a time traveler. I don't don't get get caught up in this I'm actually a time scout and time scouts are real We've got a handbook just like regular scouts merit badges. Heck. We have a store We can shop at where you can buy leeches Dual kits and of course we had masks long before any of you guys I met Amber case in 2012 at cyborg camp and cyborg camp blew my mind because that allowed me to come out as Cyborg and share something I had secretly been working on at that point for five years You see for five years I had been using technology to capture record and quantify every moment of my day and put it in my Google Calendar The calendar the original piece of time travel software that we all got to use But since the cyborg camp almost a decade later a lot has changed in my life Probably the biggest thing is I went from being single to marrying the man of my dreams Fernando This day changed my life because it made me start thinking about time in a much different way No longer could I think about me? I had to think about we and when you think about two people in time travel It becomes much different because the systems need to not only look at you and your spouse and your family But your entire life your friends your possessions even your pets But more importantly that system had to allow me to create a way that my spouse or my family or even my friends Could interact with me at any point in time So my system today allows us to browse our entire lives via a map or a very ornate complex calendar It's not just my thinking though We all are innately time travelers because our brains are time traveling our brains allow These signals to go through and to almost every cell on our body telling us when to eat when to sleep when to rest Our brains are remarkable things that allow us to time travel even when we don't want to But it's more than our brains our lives have become time travelers It's not just my calendar that became so elaborate Ben Franklin had in the library calendar today Families when they go on vacations have a library calendars and when they're planning and it's all coming from our devices Our devices are time machines in fact all technology is a time machine Whether you go back and look the original Google glass that allowed you to swipe to the future or to the past Or you're the Apple watch which allows you today to move through time and see Everything from where you are on earth to where you are in the solar system. It's remarkable and Finally, it's some of the most provocative things from Google Street views that allows you to browse cities in different times to Google Earth That shows the radical effects of climate change All technology is teaching us to think about time in a much more different way I call this time collapse think about the technology and apps you use and how they change your perception of time I believe the future of the browser looks a lot like my calendar, but much more radical Not only do we have our days and weeks? But we have our appointments and we have everything we value that we're focusing on today The habits that we did in the past our cultural heritage all the way up to the universal things that haven't changed and Including through the future These future calendars this browser of the future will allow us to see and explore so much more about who we are Other cultures and other people. I believe the browser of the future will be something that allow us to Provocatively explore everything we believe in value, but more importantly Hopefully one day it will allow us to see the actual future and change so many things thank you so much for coming to my lightning talk and I'll see you in the future
