    1. But the second one you referred to is Vannevar Bush, who wrote this beautiful essay in 1945 called “As We May Think.” In it, he basically envisions the internet. He envisions this personal computer called the “memex,” from memory and index. It’s extraordinarily prophetic — not just the technology but the relationships that we’ll have with knowledge, with information, with each other. He talks about this — he said there will be a new profession of trailblazers who will make a career out of finding useful trails through the common record. I love this notion of the common record. In a way, so much of what I do is an attempt to make sense of humanity’s common record.
