I hear that IoT as a phrase is "out." But I don't know what's replaced it!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Y'all, I am so bored. For once I don't have an actual on of work that needs doing, but since I'm on vacation starting Friday I'm sure as hell not starting any new projects. I think I have forgotten how to waste time at work.

So interesting! I guess I won't worry about what else to call it (yet), then.

As far as I know IoT is still a phrase. The "connected home" is another popular phrase, but that's really a subset of the space.
