My only hope is to be able to punch someone over the internet.

Barring that, probably more emphasis on Web 2.0, an increase in user-generated content.

The ability to stab people in the face over the internet  - a'la that bash.org quote. That's what I'm hoping for anyway.

hopefully they don't ever invent the ability to punch someone over the internet... I'd be in jail and there would be a lot of 16 year olds with black eyes... lol

Be a real man and look at real porn.

More importantly, I'd like to see faster, cheaper internet connections, like fiber optics.

Internets is faster, un-limited, and better access to better information for school/work etc.


And about 200 terabytes of more porn.

What is your predictions for additional Internet capabilities in 5 yrs
If the question was "What would you like the internet to have in 5 years" I can see your point, I'm just saying that there will be in all likeliness some form of sex simulator, hell they even have that sex MMORPG now. You make a character and just have sex with other people.

Well, the current direction in the industry is towards converging consumer services, primarily Internet, telephony and TV as a single, flexible product. In five years' time, you'll likely have most of Europe blanketed with at least some form of IPTV over any digital service equal to or higher than DSL and cable, but you're likely going to have to wait a few more years for the US to see any sort of wider scale adoption owing to the poor economics in upgrading geographically disparate local loops to handle that sort of traffic.

Other services, like Video on Demand and online backups, that leverage the primary focus products will likely gain traction at or around the time that these primary services see considerable adoption.

If you need any reference material to cite case studies or customer opinion, check out what France Telecom did with their converged services. A little bit of googling should yield a good few whitepapers and testimonials.

Anything you want or desire, expect that several million people agree.

Anything you want is in the internet's future.

In 5 years, our refrigerators will have Wi-Fi capabilities, and the ability to read what is in our fridge, and what we need more of, and then it will be able to notify us of sales at various stores near our location.
If you don't believe me, then you don't know someone who is currently designing this technology.

And that's just the one thing I happen to know about. I can imagine much, much more...
and much more CRAZY stuff.
woohoo!

Drawn porn > Real porn tbh. Not so oversexed and cheap.

Anyhow, I can imagine very fast wireless standards covering vast areas (1km2) with good pings and almost Gbit speeds. Fiberoptical becoming much more standardized, and wireless networks start taking over wired, due to new technology making them equally performing, even at longer ranges.
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

At the moment I'm just waiting for search engines that allow you to filter out all the pointless crap that people post thinking that anyone give a fuck! i.e. 99.9999% of all blogs, social networking sites, etc.

That sucks, some of us can't get women and therefore  can't get sex.  This won't happen to the U.S. unless Hilary gets voted in.
