The document discusses the growth of software and computing technologies over time, from mainframes to personal computers to the World Wide Web and mobile. It then introduces the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT), where everyday physical objects will be connected to the internet and able to identify themselves to other devices. The IoT is predicted to bring about new industries and opportunities. The document recommends checking out specific IoT-related technologies like Arduino, Pachube, Zigbee, and Linux, and joining a local meetup group to connect with other technopreneurs working in this area.
