Future Forward

Tech is driving changes in how we connect, share, fight, love, and come unglued. The hardware (gear) is impacting the software (us) in ways big and small. The gig economy sets us free of the cubicle, but creates a 24/7 feedback loop of clients, pitches, and notifications. New innovations in media move information faster, in a blur of info bursts that make fact and fiction interchangeable. We have a Twitter Presidency. Each week on Future Forward we’ll explore the undercurrents, changes, wonders, and innovation that are making the world exciting, complicated, and scary. Cool startups. Great hardware. And the battles over work, nations, and laws.
