Nostradamus wasn't exactly the Lone Ranger when it came to making predictions about the future. Arthur C. Clarke was mainly known for his science fiction stories though he also predicted the use of artificial satellites for communication. In an 1909 interview with Nikola Tesla he described the internet almost perfectly. Both Smartwatches and cell phones came from a 1940s comic strip, Dick Tracy who routinely communicated through his wristwatch, proving that even ideas that seem far fetched at the time can become reality.
