It's funny to think that in a billion years that the Earth will freeze over or implode on it's self. The sun will either explode, causing the earth to turn into a fireball. throwing us father into space. Earth will continually travel until it either lands into another galaxy's orbit or gets sucked into a black hole. If it lands into the orbit, depending on how close we are to a new sun we would re-evolve. If it goes into a black hole, Earth would eventually freeze over and implode itself.  


Technology is exploding before our eyes. Things are getting smaller, life is getting more virtual. Soon everything will be touch screened, running on electricity. Cars will run solely on electricity. Gas stations will no longer be needed. Parking lots would hold plug-ins for cars. Cars that run on voice command. Traveling across the US, in the matter of minutes. 


Soon we'd never leave our house, while we're busy living in our virtual world. As you would in Second Life.
