I'm looking forward to the day when something like Golem creates a cloud of the net, and we can trust thin clients. IPFS is an amazing concept that promises to practically eliminate excessive redundancy on the net and speed access to data using torrential hashing to connect nodes to data, rather than addresses.
Moore's Law seems to not be an exponential enough expression of growth rates of data capacity.
the angle of the dangle is vertical
the speed, the acceleration is increasing.
