This image found during the course of my previous post really gets me going:
I guess it’s got something to do with all my research into maps and stuff lately. The notion that you could hyperlink physical spaces together. Doorways, portals. Teleportation. More Star Trek science. GPS data. IRLP. Pointers dropped into space time matrices that allow instantaneous access to non-local information completely outside that system of reality. The VALIS satellite.

As the internet transfers larger and larger amounts of data from one point to another in real time, it will become more and more exactly like this.
Will there be any local reality left at that point? Definitely, but not like it used to be… More wavespectrum, less particle-thing. Both more and less real. Cause “real” is up for redefinition at that point.
well, Local reality will take on greater importance actually. Because all these machines that do things to transcend time and space need to physically be some where. People have to occupy space have a place to live and grow food,etc.
As intellectual property goes out the window, transportation costs go up, resillient communities form based on local production, land will become really valuable and a main source of wealth once again.
This all sounds approximately right to me, though I have a feeling there are some variables around the corner that none of us can see!
I also wonder at what point human couriers of data packages - a la Johnny Mnemonic - will actually become viable ways to transmit large data sets!
