In The Future 7

1. E-mail will require a postage stamp. The world breathes easily again.
2. The need to read all the anti-piracy blurb on all DVDs, software downloads etc. occurs once only in any individual's life. Then you can get on with your movie, software and life.
3. There is a moratorium and all PPT slide-decks can be hurled into vast skips dotted around the globe without penalty. The results are crushed and moulded into low-cost housing.
4. People wonder why the iBlackBelt wasn't released by Apple earlier.
5. Hand-writing is included in the foundation course at art college.
6. Cars don't just park themselves, they remove all the old crisp/chip packets and dispose of them thoughtfully, too.
7. Starbucks release gently refreshing peppermint flavoured beverage cups made of compressed rice and vitamin B which can be eaten after the drink is finished. Landfills shrink dramatically.
