+# PC 2.0
+
+This talk will be a followup to a popular blog post I made a few years ago: [Decentralization: I Want to Believe](http://adamierymenko.com/decentralization-i-want-to-believe/).
+
+There's a so-called ["wheel of reincarnation"](http://catb.org/jargon/html/W/wheel-of-reincarnation.html) in computing in which things oscillate between centralized and decentralized paradigms. Today we are in the midst of what I call the "mainframe 2.0" era. Everyone else calls it "cloud." Here I am going to talk about what's next, about what I call "PC 2.0" and what I think it will look like and how we might get there.
+
+I'm also going to discuss some of the reasons for centralization and why decentralization is hard. PC 2.0 is predicated on solutions to a wide array of challenges, as well as (like PC 1.0) on continued technological progress in areas like computing power, cost, and network bandwidth.
