Welcome to my guide to the future. This is an archive of all my older public domain articles up to Dec 2007 when I left BT. The more recent ones are on www.futurizon.net. I will eventually port these ones across too. I hope you enjoy it and find it useful. The following articles cover a wide range of aspects of the future, mostly about the impacts that new technology will have on our business and personal lives. I write new articles regularly, and have been known to respond to requests for articles on particular subjects, so if you don't find what you are looking for here, drop me an email and I'll consider your request. But no promises. The articles are posted here in an unpolished form and sorted alphabetically. The titles are mostly self explanatory, and most could be prefixed with 'the future of...'. In some instances, attractive formatting has been lost while converting them for the web. Tough! I hope that you are more interested in the content of the articles than their aesthetic appearance, and remember, they are free and I'm busy!
All of the documents on this site are free to
download for your personal use, though you must ask permission before reproducing
or distributing them in any form. One of my roles is as a professional
conference speaker. I do about 100 talks each year, many of which are keynotes
at large conferences. I also write professionally (paid commissions do not
appear here for obvious reasons). If you would like to discuss the possibility
of my speaking at your conference, or accepting a writing commission, I will be
happy to discuss rates. I also do lots of stuff with the media, so if that's
your line, and you find something of interest, give me a call. My contact and
other details are here.
My email is idpearson@gmail.com
Note that most of the articles have a heading referring to BT’s futurologist. That’s because I was with BT until the end of 2007. I am now with Futurizon, www.futurizon.net.
