1979 Book Predicted Living Room of the Future
A 1979 book, called “Future Cities: Homes and Living into the 21st Century,” did an amazingly accurate job of describing the LIVING ROOM OF THE FUTURE — their future, our present. It predicted giant, flat-screen TVs that enabled you to record shows, “electronic newspapers,” and mail coming in “electronic form.” The book said, “millions of office workers [will be] able to work at home.” It also predicted technologies that are very much possible now, but that haven’t hit the mainstream — robots that bring drinks and video telephones. Plus, we’re not wearing futuristic track suits all the time.
