Computer, Walk With Me

screen-shot-2012-05-30-at-4-38-55-pmEditor's note: Gentry Underwood is a software designer and entrepreneur who co-founded Orchestra, Bring a Trailer, and formerly lead the Knowledge Sharing domain at IDEO. You can find him on Twitter at @gentry.Let's start with the obvious: if you're reading this post you're already well-aware of the breakneck pace of technological innovation that has defined the last 30 years of human development. We can probably skip the refreshers on Moore's law or the platitudes about innovation happening faster and faster. This is a story we've all heard. This is a story we know by heart.And yet, the way we tell this story can have a big effect on how prepared we are for what comes next. Spin it one way and the singularity is near. Spin it another and technology itself is organic and alive. Or perhaps our best days are behind us.
