- 5. “THE INTERNET AS A NETWORK HAD THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME LIKE A NERVOUS SYSTEM IF WE ADDED SENSING CAPABILITY.” KEVIN ASHTONP&G, UK (1999) – ASSISTANT BRAND MANAGER, OLAY
- 6. 6 IoT – THE INTERNET OF THINGS IoT is a term that represents a collection of ideas, devices, and processes. Each thing is represented by a device or sensor. These things are usually working together to create larger solutions by sending and reacting to data from an ecosystem.

- 19. 19 WHY JAVASCRIPT? The current toolsets are hard to learn and use. Low Level languages mean more development time and issues.
- 20. 20 WHY NODE.JS? 48% of developers are using Node.js at IoT companies npm 231643 total packages
