I am almost twenty four years old and during this period( so far in my life) i have been noticing a lot of changes in every thing, especially in the technological aspect which  is improving day by day. In this article I  am portraying my imagination about the world in the next 20 years.

Technology:

The technology after two decades is unimaginable. When i was a kid i knew that the computer just as a word. If I am to use the computer on which I am writing this article in the next 20 years, people will see me as a eccentric. It is same as calculating a ten digit number to the power of ten by using a paper and pen now.

No body will go to shops to buy things. They will just sit and order for it by internet. Most people do not need to go to work, every body works from home. The work which people do these days will be done by robots in two decades. So the job for the people will be just to manage the robots.

Computers and robots will come with more facilities, more memory, and more technology. Just think for a second if a robot gets more memory and functions, why can’t it start thinking and doing works for itself? If they start thinking themselves that will be the critical position for world. If they gain the ability to think, it is expected naturally that the following questions will arise: why do people manage us? Why we don’t manage them? .If they do so..!!

Internet:

Nowadays internet is a part of life. If we have a site like www.yahoo.com after two decades it will have only page rank 1. If a site earn from ads 1$ per CPM, after two decades it will be just 0.01$. I know that in 10 years, a site with 1000 unique visitor per month could earn around 1000$ a month. This is same amount a site with 100000 unique visitors earns nowadays. 95 percentage of people will use internet for their usual works. So the huge usage of bandwidth can crash the sites or temporarily shutdown. If a network of the whole New York City is down for just ten minutes, it will result in a huge loss(unbelievable loss).

Money:

The money is the most important thing in every ones life, so people will do what ever to get money. The amount of counterfeit currency will be the same as the amount of original currency. The number of criminals will be almost the same as the number of the remaining people in the world. Soon the value of a 100 dollars will be the same as value of a one dollar now which is equal to 100 cents. In that case if we want to buy a car we should bring the cash in a car. Here did you notice that Newton’s second law is happening lol.

So we don’t still know how the world will be after twenty years. We can expect a happy super world simultaneously we must expect a crash of world or total catastrophe.

Let’s wait and see. I will be happy to be alive after twenty year and see how my expectations turn out. I hope so.
