So far IT only increases availability but not quite quality of information. In a way, we have IT for propagation but that is not qualification.

Modern IT gadgets are moving towards 'look ma -- no hand on the wheel' (on the go where-ever; free from power points, desk and sitting only, use of icons (new world Chinese?), gestures and video interactions. People will have to learn to talk 'computerese' (to computers/robots), and more other people (avross the world in some common language)...

I think deeper "language" learning is a key to living in innovated world.
