Nice summary, you can tell the presenter particularly liked discussing the 'near future' of big data like smart cars, smart heating, smart locks... at some point soon we're going to have to drop the 'smart' moniker as everything will be smart! It was interesting to learn about proximity sensors in fast food restaurants - personally I've never received a push notification that quickly that I've ever considered it was happening! Good job overall :-))

Good stuff mate. The last bit about the pyramid reminded me of our first IT lesson at College with Mr Favell :-)
