Who could think that WTF and LOL would change the future?

How could the ideas of the cyberpunk be conceived of as a technology? There is no mechanical ideologies present within the idea itself, but it is a result of the extremes of technologial cooperation. It is a CONCEPT, but with rather mystical qualities. I say "mystical" in the idea that perhaps the certifiable thinkers that think up cyberpunk are visionaries of the future. Think ancient Greek oracles, only cooler and much more in tune with technological marvels.

I do like the idea of cyberpunk being accepted more and more through cyberpunk movies such as Blade Runner and Akira. They have accomplished what the sad, lonely Trekkies have not been able to accomplish: the beginnings of a growing accepted practice with hints of technologies that we already have, and with which we are comfortable understanding.
