I would like to articulate a bold vision to share with those who are also study information rules. To well explain the vision, I'd like to use a simplified metaphor. Let's say all of us have a timeline floating with us. Aggressively, we can say all the information in your whole life has been decided by "God+You" to map into our timeline.  God(the rest of the world) will push information to you, and you yourself can decide what you want to pull or consume other information. So all the information (whether historical or future) will be programmed to fall on the exact time point on your life timeline.

Isn't it too fatalistic? Maybe. But it's true in some way. If we assume this metaphor first, all of us will have to turn to next challenge. So the new goal can be stated as "how to make information come to my life instantly on time", or "how to make right information arrives me on right time".  In 2.0 age, the "you" were empowered to be able to do more things on behalf of "God", so you can help yourself to manage your information timeline. Trying to make information more accruate on delivery,  we have to chop information into smaller and smaller pieces, aka micro-information(microcontent or more technically, microformats), then it's possible to remix the sliced information to fit the goal above. It's more like the scheduling tool in our life, or threading/process design in Operation System. Our whole life will be 2.0lized in this way to be more effective and multi-tasking. Our brain can be well utilized in this way.

Now there are some teams here and world wide share the same vision. They make different kinds of technologies to realize the "empowerment" from "God" in different ways. I do like to work or discuss with them. Isn't it the bright future as Ray Kurzweil said?
