Will the “Internet Of Things” Get BIGGER Than the Regular Internet

Is this possible?

There are billions of computers and smart phones online and the IoT may eclipse that soon.

Do you remember the internet of the 90’s?  There were unusual chat boards, and a lot of people did not have email and it was super slow.  By the late 1990’s an incredible adoption of online communications started taking place.  Compare it to 15 years later or so.  The internet of things may eclipse the internet as we know it:

Currently, the internet of things is somewhat like the internet of the 90’s. It seems to be looking at similar challenges and setbacks as the internet once did, but the realised potential of both is clearly impossible to argue with. According to a McKinsey study, Internet of Things can constitute a whopping 11% of the entire world economy by 2025. What accentuates this point is that to many, the idea of an ubiquitous network of things seems outlandish, like something far out in the future, even scifi. It is hard to grasp what the internet of things will look like. It is difficult to push our minds past the basic ideas of coffee machines and water bottles that could allow us to access our Facebook page. These smart machines are not what IoT is about. Instead, IoT is about connected devices.
