《名人傳記》之喬布斯遺失的訪談60:互聯(lián)網未來10年的發(fā)展趨勢

We have taken another...one of those brilliant original ideas from Xerox PARC that I saw in 1979,

我們借鑒了施樂PARC的另一項研究成果，也是1979年看到的

but didn't see really clearly then, called object oriented technology,

當時只了解一點皮毛。這項研究叫面向對象編程

and we have perfected it and commercialized it, here and become the biggest supplier ever to the market,

NeXT已經將其商業(yè)化，成為最大的供應商

and this object technology let you build software 10 times faster, and it's better.

它可以將軟件開發(fā)速度提高十倍，而且質量更好

So that's what we do, and we got a small to medium sized business, a large supplier of objects,

這就是NeXT目前做的事

you know we were 50 to 75 million dollar company, got about 300 people, and that's what we do.

公司有300人，資產是5000~7500萬美元

And the end of the 3rd show, actually is one moment that we do look into the future, because channel 4 has asked us to do that.

第四頻道要求三期節(jié)目結束前請嘉賓展望一下未來

So what's your vision of 10 years from now, with this technology that you are developing?

你怎么看未來10年的技術發(fā)展趨勢?

You know I think the internet and the web…

我看好互聯(lián)網和web

there are two exciting things happening in software and in computing,

軟件行業(yè)正在發(fā)生兩件激動人心的事

one is objects, and the other is the web,

一個是面向對象編程，另一個就是web

the web is incredibly exciting because it fulfilled a lot of our dreams,

web將實現(xiàn)我們盼望已久的夢想

that the computer would ultimately not primarily a device for computation but metamorphosis a device for communication,

計算機不再僅僅充當計算工具，開始承擔通信功能

and with the web that's finally happening, Secondly it's exciting because the Microsoft doesn't know it,

可喜的是微軟還沒發(fā)現(xiàn)這一點

and therefore it's tremendous amount of innovation happening.

創(chuàng)新的機會很多

So I think the web is going to be profound in what it does to our society.

web將深刻改變我們的社會

As you know 15% of the goods and services in the US were sold by catalog over TV.

你知道美國有15%的商品是通過電視購物銷售的

All that would go on the web and more, billions and billions …soon tens of billions of dollars of goods and services are going to be sold on the web.

電視購物很快會被web取代，網絡銷售的潛力巨大

A way to think about it is ultimately directed customer distribution channel,

網絡將成為最直接的銷售渠道

and another way to think about it is the smallest company in the world can look as large as the largest company in the world on the web.

而且在網絡上小公司與大公司看起來沒有區(qū)別
