Las Vegas
While walking in a shopping mall in Las Vegas I found out that each visitor is recorded about 784 times a day. My first thought: security. I began thinking about how security has changed since 9/11, and how much more it will change in the coming years. From credit card transactions to driving violations, our actions are, and always will be recorded in some way. How many times will our everyday actions be digitally captured? How and where will this data be stored? Will we be able to keep information stored in its original format such as 5.25″ floppy disks, 3.5″ floppy discs, jazz disks, zip disks and hard drives?
What will the digital libraries of the future look like?
