World Wide Web

The World Wide Web, or just Internet for short, is constantly connecting people together and collecting, sharing, and saving data easier everytime a new idea is put out. Cloud Computing is the latest in this sense of data sharing. Companies have been made, such as Mediafire or Dropbox, that allows you to save files and share them to other users and computers at ease. This is the basic idea of what Cloud Computing is for. Although some requires certain software to be installed and regularly updated, (Cloud Computing: As software migrates from PCs to distant Internet Servers...) it allows one to keep everything with them without having to sacrifice a lot of system memory. This allows for faster performance on your devices. Back on connecting people together as stated earlier, Ray Kurzweil, Google's new Director of Engineering, says that language is an important part when it comes to the future of the Web, specifically artificial intelligence. Google can combine the personalized recommendations of a friend (who often know us better than we know ourselves) with the sum of all human knowledge, creating a sort of super best friend. (Google's New Director of Engieering, Ray Kurzweil, Is Building Your 'Cybernetic Friend') In order for that to happen, this "best friend" will have to know different languages in order for it to work with people across the globe.
