Future

Wijnand Jorgen did a good job in summarizing the future of e-commerce backing up his prediction with various emerging tech and the impact they might bring. The truth is our future is uncertain, complicated by the many new technologies. Very few leaders can glimpse a strong vision of how it might be in the next 5-10 years, yet Wijnand’s vision provide a logical view on how it might turned out. It struck a few chords in my mind and I do agree with many of his predictions. Worth the read for people who are interested about how our future might be.
