Ubiquitous computing
is also known as calm technology, pervasive computing, or what Alan Kay has called "Third Paradigm" computing. The main idea is that information technologies will become thoroughly integrated into everyday objects and activities without people even being aware they are using them. We can foresee this new kind of human-computer interaction as especially convenient and attractive for elder people and those not accustomed to using computers as a tool. Once broadband wireless services are available everywhere, people will not need to have large storage and expensive software installed in their computers, There may be fewer computers, not more.
How would this development be different from the spread of virtual realities?
