Mapping the future of communication

"In mapping the future of communication, it is important to know where we are now and where we want to go. Short of looking into a crystal ball, it is hard to know what the future will hold. In terms of personal and professional communications, it is perhaps more efficient to look at the gap between now and then. How people use the communications we have now is important to how they may use it in the future. E-mail, IM, and [social networking services] SNS have each evolved relatively quickly. There have been many early adopters and probably just as many have opinions about the pros and cons of each. We want to look at what we think will be the next step" (Cunia, Krom, & Marceau, 2007). "[T]he current technologies used for communication will converge in the future to an all-encompassing personal social communication network (PSCN). This network will include E-mail, instant messaging, and multimedia technologies" (Cunia, et. al., 2007).
