What Does Technology Want?

I am, as you may know, a fan of podcasts.  I load up the iPhone and listen to and from work.

Here is a list of my current subscriptions.  Several of these are TED Talks (the speaker's names are given first).  The others are collapsed lists of the podcasts on my iPhone.

All this is to bring you to a podcast carrying the title of this post.

In this IT Conversation podcast Dr. Moira Gunn talks with former Wired magazine Editor-in-Chief, Kevin Kelly, about his new book, What Technology Wants, and his theory that technology is undergoing its own evolution.

Kelly is provocative in the way that Ray Kurzweil is provocative; a different point of view on the issue at hand and consequent conclusions that cause you, or at least me, to think of the world in a new way.  New thinking provides the opportunity for new solutions and better outcomes.  That appeals to me.

I invite you to listen.
