Hmmm, interesting. Everyone connected to a single grid!!! Have you seen "Die Hard 4.0"? If you have, you wont be too comfortable with the idea. Imagine me, the world's greatest h@ck3r  taking control of "THE GRID"!!! IMHO, I feel the grid is just improving the current interconnectivity and bandwidth issues by relying solely on fiber optics networks.

lets wait till the future gets here.  there are so many 'innovations of the future' that never panned out it could turn out to be nothing more than vaporware

Its a nice Idea , but this means that security will become a major issue.

Carlosein this is because if every one world over is connected to a single grid, there is a possibility of people hacking their way into such a backbone and have access to where they please if adequate security measures are not put in place.

Grid or cluster computing will not replace the way we use our computers for a long time to come The basic advantage of cluster computing is using combined (or excess) memory, speed and capacity of all computers in the grid But we still need to interconnect all these computers in the grid So the dial up, broadband etc will still be relevant Grid computing is the resource not the interconnectivity (or transport)
