Computers once took up entire floors of buildings, with lab-coated technicians catering to their every whim. They served the machine. Computer interfaces were extremely difficult to communicate with, essentially making all users programmers.
Computers are now so small they fit in your pocket or ear, and are essentially disposable. Computers will be even more ubiquitous soon: in your refrigerator, on the recycling bin, on your trash can, even in your toilet, monitoring your health. The machine will serve us. Computer interfaces will be so easy to use that children, the elderly -- anyone of any ability -- will easily communicate with them.
