And it is already happening. In an increasing number of places, "things" are getting on the net.
A number of American universities use the eSuds online laundry service, letting students manage their laundry over the internet - this way they know when it is their turn, avoiding a long wait with a basket of smelly shirts.
In a smart LED-equipped wine rack called WineM, every bottle has an RFID tag, and the rack is connected to the internet to let the owner know when a bottle has been removed. The rack can also organise the bottles in any combination, and if you want specific wine for a party, the LEDs in the rack will light up the bottles you asked for.
Internet-enabled smart buildings communicate with people through sensors, prompting them to save energy by optimising the heating and cooling systems.
