What is the next Big Thing?
 

Not just adult, I was thinking bigger. Obviously the internet was huge and we all benefited from that. The next big thing would be smaller then the internet but what about telephony or voice over ip? I am not even sure of the name but it is the joining of your telcom cables and wires.

Anything else you are seeing building out there that makes you go WOW!!!?

SOIP. Sex Over IP. LOL

This thread hurts my brain.

:upsidedow

shit I should have put "would you hit it" in the title.

:error

big ass ice dildos for ur ass!

whats in my sig :)

Duke

i have it.
and i aint sharing.

if people on GFY knew the next thing they wouldn't be posting here asking for partner accounts on TGPs to submit to

mobile porn

The next best thing: Midget Dragster Racing.

I've got it! It's Broadband over power lines. With hundreds of megabits per second and access to rural places that can't get DSL or cable how can this go wrong?

Power Line Internet Could Crush Cable, DSL
New model estimates hundreds of megabits per second possible

A new model for high-speed broadband transmissions over overhead power lines estimates that at full handling capacity they can provide bit rates that far exceed DSL or cable over similar spans.

So-called broadband power line trials are underway in some parts of the US but currently run at DSL-comparable speeds of two to three megabits per second.

Researchers at Pennsylvania State University say that they've run a computer simulation showing that under ideal conditions the maximum bit rate is close to a gigabit per second per kilometer on an overhead, medium voltage, unshielded US power line properly conditioned through impedance matching.

Shared by a half-dozen homes in a neighborhood, the gigabit can provide rates in the hundreds of megabits per second range, says researcher Mohsen Kavehrad, much higher than DSL and cable.

"If you condition those power lines properly, they're an omnipresent national treasure waiting to be tapped for broadband Internet service delivery, especially in rural areas where cable or DSL are unavailable," says Kavehrad.

Kavehrad predicts that engineering issues to making power line Internet an alternative to DSL and cable will be solved. However, it may still not be an economical alternative because there are interference issues that need to be overcome.

The researchers presented their findings in Las Vegas, Nevada at the IEEE Consumer Communications & Networking Conference.

Lol that made me laugh!!

This is going to be HUGE and really change the way things are done. Amazing to sit back and think where technology will be in 10 years with such huge advancements upon us.

Oh yeah!! And in some more years people will have sunglasses connected and can then see porn everywhere! lol... There will be alot of stupid inventions!

The internet via powerlines has been around for at least 3 years now.. i'm suprised it hasnt fully taken off yet. If it does though I'd be more than happy to signup, I'm stuck on a 1mbit line in the middle of no-where.. as apposed to 8mbit in london.
