Back in 2004 I sat and ate lunch with Douglas Engelbart (inventor of the mouse) at a hypertext conference in Santa Cruz. He dreamt of much more than mice: a futuristic web of knowledge that could augment our collective IQ and help humanity solve its problems. Today one of the pioneers of the computer industry passes on. I call out to my fellow tech visionaries to carry this dream forward, the next big thing is and always has been knowledge. nytimes/2013/07/04/technology/douglas-c-engelbart-inventor-of-the-computer-mouse-dies-at-88.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0
