The internet is an incredible thing, changing human existence over the past five decades and continuing to provide us with huge advancements each year. But what does the [future hold](https://www.financedigest.com/what-the-future-holds-for-financial-institutions-in-2023.html "What the Future Holds For Financial Institutions in 2023") for the internet, and how will it impact our lives?

[Fasthosts](https://www.fasthosts.co.uk/blog/the-future-of-the-internet/) has teamed up with two key experts, leading futurologists Dr James Bellini and Andrew Gill, to uncover how the internet will change over the next 30 years, and to better see how the digital landscape is set to evolve in the coming decades.

Immersive VR, eye implants to view our social feeds, predictive algorithms, and green web hosting are just a few of the huge advancements to come over the [next 30 years](https://www.financedigest.com/the-next-upcoming-years-to-see-the-gastric-electric-stimulators-market-grow-kinetically.html "The Next Upcoming Years To See The Gastric Electric Stimulators Market Grow Kinetically").

- The [next generation of social networkers will be impacted by the acceleration in digital innovation](https://www.financedigest.com/setsquared-helps-turn-basingstoke-into-the-souths-next-tech-and-innovation-hub.html "SETsquared helps turn Basingstoke into the South’s next tech and innovation hub"), including the development of hyper-augmented reality and brain-to-computer interfaces.

- By 2050 it’s expected that consumers will be able to plug nanobots directly into the brain for full-immersion [virtual reality](https://www.financedigest.com/vr-virtual-reality-to-sweep-the-physical-therapy-services-market.html "VR (Virtual Reality) to Sweep the Physical Therapy Services market") that directly influences the nervous system.
- We’ll soon see VR [developments across](https://www.financedigest.com/cordant-projects-to-develop-eleven-moxy-hotels-across-uk.html "Cordant Projects to develop Eleven Moxy Hotels across UK") a broader spectrum of senses, to simulate smell and taste as current technology does sight.

**Data: [Virtual Clouds](https://www.financedigest.com/dont-let-the-promises-of-virtual-desktop-security-cloud-your-judgement.html "Don’t let the promises of virtual desktop security cloud your judgement") Will Replace Hardware Data Storage**
