Smart choices about off-the-shelf and proprietary From Innovation X.Did it by creating a seamless ecosystem that combines web and physical objects (cars, parking spaces, RFID, smart cards) I discuss Zipcar at length in my book, Innovation X Power of design and user experience - turned car sharing from an unpleasant, hard to use service to a fun, mainstream one.Works because of a seamless integration of hardware, software, web, back-end, all wrapped in a service and brand. Turned running back into Nike’s fastest growing category. Nike + is one of the most successful internet of things offerings. Your heartbeat becomes part of a social conversation.Maybe alert someone if you don’t move for a while Temperature Track changes caused by medication Send all this out into the cloud for doctor, family, caregiver to follow, help support Many chronic diseases require changes in behavior that have to be supported by those around you, using the web is a great way of helping enable that.

So we’ve been seeing a lot of companies experimenting with how to use the web in combination with diagnostic and monitoring products Early thinking on this includes spimes, internet of things Medical is an area that this is really taking off in, as the medical industry tries to deal with sprialling costs, and is looking at distributed care, remote care, and self-care as ways of doing that. The two realms are beginning to intersect.We can see this going on at very large scale too Healthy day for GE, a takeover of all the screens in Times Square, with real time user-generated content from around the world about how people think of health displayed on the screens.This trend is already well underway with augmented reality in mobile devices, such as Wikitude, even the iTunes music store, arguably the first mass market weblication - the browser invisibly embedded into the application All examples of the traditional browser with urls, bookmarks, back/forth navigation, all disappearing into something else.

I worked at Sun in the 1990’s when the web and Mosaic first appeared Limited formats for the web - had to get through browser on a PC This was fine for the time.

and we see the phone and PC markets converging, adding to the confusion.

With technology objects, functionality can be added and added as a way of making products more adaptable to different needs and situations.

(This is a bit simplistic, as cars have caused a lot of changes in built environment, and the environment has had to conform to cars in many ways)

But cars are individualistic, and more customizable - they conform to our needs of time and space.

That was fine for a long time, and for many people still is.

We have to conform to trains, because trains run on limited schedules and have limited places they go.

Working trains, but tourists (mostly my fellow Englishmen) can run the trains. Rescued the last section of steam trains in Poland.

The Wolsztyn experience, started by 2 English brothers, Howard and Trevor Jones.

In particular, trains in the town of Wolsztyn, in central Poland.

The title of my talk was rather hastily conceived as “The future of the web will be invisible.” But it might better be thought of as “the future of the web will be physical” Collision of web and physical objects - area of most interest at frog, where we work on both The main theme today will be of comformance - how do we as humans conform to the things we make, including the web, and how do they conform to us? And what are the trends going forward?.

Or to put it another way, at the stage of We are still at the horseless carriage stage
