Data ! Data !! Data !!!

• "There was 5 exabytes of information created between the dawn of civilization through 2003…… but that much information is now created every 2 days, and the pace is increasing...People aren't ready for the technology revolution that's going to happen to them....“

• "If I look at enough of your messaging and your location, and use Artificial Intelligence," Schmidt said, "we can predict where you are going to go."

• "Show us 14 photos of yourself and we can identify who you are. You think you don't have 14 photos of yourself on the internet? You've got Facebook photos! People will find it's very useful to have devices that remember what you want to do, because you forgot...But society isn't ready for questions that will be raised as result of user-generated content."

-Eric Schmidt @ the Techonomy confab in 2010
