Web On-The-Go: A Preview of the Way of Living in a Wireless Web World

by Bala Sankar

Sankar begins Web on-the-Go with an extensive introduction to the philosophical and historical basis of his ideas. He extols the virtue of innovation or visionary creative thinking blaming our current recession on a lack of innovation rather than financial straits. While this point is highly debatable Sankar is on firmer ground when he describes leaps forward in technology propelled by innovators such as da Vinci, Arthur Clarke and Sony Akio Morita, the conceptualizer of transistor radios. The bulk of Web on-the-Go details scenarios in which a thoroughly wireless world could be useful. In one chapter a family lost in the wilderness is found with the help of a wireless broadcast of their last known position. In another chapter a business owner tracks containers of goods from China through embedded wireless transmitters that communicate their location. Each example stretches the possibilities of current technology to their plausible limits arguing that improved wireless technology at all levels of society would benefit everyone. Web on-the-Go is clearly written and its simple style is accessible even to a non-technical audience. Some of the scenarios read like fictional scenes. The engaging presentation of the material may inspire some readers to the type of innovation that Sankar glorifies. Thanks. Enjoy, Web On-The-Go.
