The most interesting part imho is the lifestream he talks about, as well the implied "eternity service" for information management. I wonder besides Linda, why more of these ideas didn't see implementation. I am assuming the Internet and the open source collaboration came too late.

Linda for sure will see reincarnation, but can't stop thinking how funny it is that old technologies are coming back in big fashion, as "innovations". PG might be right, all languages seem to be evolving into Lisp. :D
