Google may have played a significant role in establishing the Internet as we know it, but according to its Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt, the future of the world’s most advanced information network is for it to disappear.

Schmidt wasn't referring to the actual disappearance of the World Wide Web, but rather our sense of it as its own technology, separate from everything else. "There will be so many IP addresses...so many devices, sensors, things that you are wearing, things that you are interacting with that you won't even sense it,' he said, adding that the Internet "will be part of your presence all the time."
