Visionaries...

People are always trying to see or understand how things are going to work in the future. I just found this video from the 1960s on how shopping and banking would be done in 1999. It's interesting and kind of funny. From the page I found it on:

Many visionaries who tried to forecast what daily life would be like for future generations made the mistake of simply projecting existing technologies as being bigger, faster, and more powerful. They often failed to anticipate that future technologies might take very different forms, might be put to previously unconsidered uses, and might accompany (or even help bring about) significant social changes.
