Internet Becoming Obsolete Soon?

What is the future of computing?  According to scientists who designed the internet, "The Grid" will provide speeds up to 10,000 times faster than a typical broadband connection.  The network is based on fiber optics, and is already up and running with 55,000 servers online.  Can you imagine the power of such an "instantaneous" worldwide information network?  WOW! 

Scientists involved with CERN, the renowned particle physics center, have been collaborating on the project for 7 years.  One aspect that could evolve out of such a network could be the elimination of desktop computer's storage needs, since everything could be stored in cyberspace--known as "cloud computing."  To read the entire article, click here.

One thought I had while reading the article was how to utilize such a network for Real Estate.  Virtual Tours could move to the next level & be truly interactive...a person in London could literally "walk through" a home in Tucson.  A buyer could "virtually customize" a home while shopping online, even take their own furniture and decorations and arrange them electronically to see how they look in a potential purchase. 

The possibilities are endless....
