It suggests that technology as a whole is not as a jumble of wires and metal but a living, evolving organism that has its own unconscious needs and tendencies. Kelly looks out through the eyes of this global technological system to discover &#8220;what it wants.&#8221; Kelly uses vivid examples from the past to trace technology&#8217;s long course, and then follows a dozen trajectories of technology into the near future to project where technology is headed.<\/p>\n<p>This new theory of technology offers three practical lessons: By listening to what technology wants we can better prepare ourselves and our children for the inevitable technologies to come. By adopting the principles of pro-action and engagement, we can steer technologies into their best roles. And by aligning ourselves with the long-term impertatives of this near-living system, we can capture its full gifts.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Well, interesting approach in understanding and approaching (changes brought by) tech &#8211; earmarking this for my Xmas wish-list &#8230; directly <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kk.org\/books\/what-technology-wants.php\">via Kevin Kelly<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This provocative book introduces a brand-new view of technology.
