The Internet in 2035

I watched this video the other day which features Vint Cerf, commonly referred to as the father of the internet. He makes some outstanding predictions, while being a very engaging and likeable speaker. At the end of the speech, he warns us of the dangers of digitizing everything without a backup print document. What would happen if the materials we digitize today cannot be read by the software of the future? Everyone should be aware of the dangers of relying solely on technology, and he makes a good point at explaining this. By keeping our perspective broad and our minds open, we can move towards a digital environment while being conservative in our techniques.
