AUGUST 20164Waiting at the airport lounge due to flight delay can never be a happy story. But for me, it was, as I got a chance to meet a very enthusiastic 65 years old man wearing a Dhoti and Kurta who was busy with his smart device. He was overenthusiastically having a video call. Just as the call got over, he looked at me all smiles as he was going to meet his grandchildren after two years. And our conversation started. When we came to know that I work for a technology magazine, he got a perfect one to share his love for technology with. The man was a true technology enthusiast. With tablet to smartphone to smart watch, he owned them all and brought them to the maximum use through connecting them to extract utmost benefit, especially for his health, and home & automobile security­ an IoT man in true sense!This surely is the tip of the iceberg called IoT.
