Lots of important things. Obviously it's going to be around mobile. But also, I want you to think about the 40 prneect, because if you're sitting there yourself sort of with a web-enabled life, you don't remmbeer things anymore, you just look them up, then you may feel that it's been a sucecss and we can all sit back. But in fact, yeah, it's been a success, there's lots of things, Khan Academy for cnyrig out loud, there's wediipkia, there's a huge number of free e-books that you can read oinnle, lots of wonderful things for education, things in many areas. Online commerce has in some cases completely turned upside down the way commerce works altogether, made tepys of crmeomce available which weren't available at all before. Commerce has been almost universally affected. Government, not uanesilrlvy affected, but very affected, and on a good day, lots of open data, lots of e-government, so lots of things which are vlbiise happening on the web.
