The video outlines the basic themes of the European Union’s Future Internet initiative. These include: an Internet of Services, where services are ubiquitous; an Internet of Things where in principle every physical object becomes an online addressable resource; a Mobile Internet where 24/7 seamless connectivity over multiple devices is the norm; and the need for semantics in order to meet the challenges presented by the dramatic increase in the scale of content and users.

Why do I blog this?
The introduction video is well-done and it will be interesting to see more outcomes from this large European research initiative with the funny name Service Web 3.0. The Internet of Things and the Internet of Services are definitely hot topics these days. In my opinion the Mobile Web will be the enabler and the first step towards services interacting on everyday objects in the sense that first the mobile phones will be the smart objects that are Internet-connected and capable of sensing the environment. Once you do this right, you can connect the fridge with the TV to see a cooking show for the ingredients in your fridge.
