What comes next after Information Age?
Twenty-five years after the introduction of the World Wide Web, the Information Age is coming to an end. Thanks to mobile screens and Internet everywhere, we’re now entering what I call the “Experience Age.”

How fast will computers get?
According to Moore’s Law, and the limits of quantum mechanics, some estimate that we will reach top processing power in roughly 70 years. Critics of that claim, however, say that Moore’s Law will begin to break down in as little as 15 years, particularly because transistors are already microscopically small.
How are modern car engines different from older car engines?
Even the current four-cylinder engine on the Malibu makes 59 more horsepower than the 1983 model’s V-6. Car makers have learned that you don’t have to make the engine bigger to get the power consumer’s want. Since modern engines make more power than older engines, you’d expect them to be larger.
How does a V-8 engine differ from a modern engine?
In an old V-8 engine, all eight cylinders were firing, no matter if the car was idling or accelerating as fast as it could. Also, all eight cylinders were getting the same amount of fuel, regardless of how much work the engine was doing at the time. Today’s engines have technology that makes them work smarter.
What makes a modern car engine more efficient?
With modern engines the basics still apply, but there’s a lot more to think about. Modern engines have a number of technologies in place to make them more efficient. Your basic gasoline car engine isn’t all that efficient.
What do you need to know about game engines?
Some game engines only provide real-time 3D rendering capabilities instead of the wide range of functionality needed by games. These engines rely upon the game developer to implement the rest of this functionality or to assemble it from other game-middleware components.
