The Industrial Revolution

The Industrial Revolution of the late 1800's and early 1900's transformed America from a fledgling agricultural nation into an industrial and international powerhouse. We know that issues such as immigration and a vast supply of natural resources helped America transform. Currently we are experiencing a new revolution, a technology revolution. The internet, e-mail, blogging, i-pods, cell phones have increased the capacity of our communication and our access to knowledge like nothing ever before. What do you believe the results of this new revolution will be for the US? Will we still be a super power or do you think the rest of the world will catch up?? Please respond.
