Gilder's Cyberspace (4344 words) |
 | Gilder traces the microcosm to the invention of the transistor by William Shockley of the ATandT Bell Laboratories, and the quantum physics that led to Shockley's invention. |
| Gilder tells us that the microcosm will not have it "big bang" until it is married with the telecosm, which will give us the bandwidth the accommodate the immense computing power that will move to the edges of the networks. |
| Gilder calls this world of free bandwidth the fibersphere, and to understand it you have to realize that he is talking about something that is very different from what we read about in the press in articles about the networks being planned by the telephone and cable TV industries. |
