A lingering thought and an equally motivating article led to this post.
I particularly liked this line
"Currently we are in the age of keyword box, superficial statistical semantics, stateless systems, text dominance, and archived data. All these factors will be challenged by technology because the nature of data and devices is rapidly evolving beyond text and archived data."
The way I want to think of this is to have an Open standards based device which can be used for searching your own personal things. Oh God how often do we all do that. Wouldn't it be great if you could just throw around things after tagging them. Later go to this super cool device and ask it, beep where that things was. Things could never get stolen. Your eye glasses, pen, company ID card or your vehicle keys. Then it starts beeping or shows a map from where you stand to where that article is. And then we go further. It throws down a list of similar things which are more advanced, may be "coming soon" or you can find it here or "upgrade to this" available in the market. Intel, I guess is moving towards this. What they call digital homes.
Will we ever graduate to this :)

Hey buddy,
I think something like is in existence. I read bout something called a key finder. Your key chain is a reciever and you have the other transmitter and when you press a button on the transmitter, the receiver beeps and you know where it is!!!
I guess you are just taking it a step ahead. I dont think this should be that far ahead, we have the technology today to to it. Someone just has to get up and do something about it.
