I heard a clamor (and I haven’t had a chance to analyze it yet) that we Can We Kick Our Keyboard Addiction by 2013 according to Google – and there’s a lot to say about that as mobile devices become more pervasive and powerful.

But one thing I don’t see people talking about is the increase in productivity that mobile devices bring us – has anyone actually measured that?    Today I can read all my RSS feeds, comment on them with notes and even blog about them while transversing my life – increasingly – we don’t need to be at our desks to be productive.

The offshoot of that is that we’re always working – and yet another offshoot – if we’re so much more productive now because we can take almost all our awake time and cram something useful (workwise) into it – how will that impact the employment sector (as one person becomes increasingly more productive).

If this is so, my take, does each person who is able to use mobile technology (or whatever we want to call it – ie: 4G Web) more powerful – more indispensable, or less  important?  What are the implications of being able to disperse with desktops – do we have more virtual companies?  Does the boundaries of work life and the rest of our lives vanish -  even more than they already have?

It’s something to think about, no doubt – and if anyone has ideas – and knows in more detail what Google is planning with the elimination of desktops by 2013 I’d like to hear back from you (as a comment on this post).
