It makes me feel strange to think that all these industries, all these jobs, and all these companies didn't exist just 30 years ago. Nowadays everyone says the web. It seems very hard to predict what technology will be dominant in another 30 years. It is fortunate that I will probably still live by then to witness the future.

Anyway, congratulations to the web.

The web seems to have bootstrapped entire industries who rely on its infra to operate. This will be the same story in the next 20 years. The web is the foundation, the innovation you will see, will piggyback on top of it, unless something else serves as the underlying basis (cough blockchain).
