The artifacts of the Age of Industry are solid things
Big things; of metal, concrete and stone
What of the Information Age?
What will we leave behind for future generations?
The artifacts of the Age of Information are ephemeral things
Little things; of bits and bytes and nanotech
Will they last the test of time?
Will Cyberspace outlast the Engineering of our past?
