Frank Ogden, the free-spirited futurist known as Dr. Tomorrow who was one of the first people to predict that Internet would come to dominate our lives, has died.
The world-renowned Vancouverite with an eclectic resume, including pilot, corporate consultant, broadcaster, LSD therapist, teacher and author of 22 books, died on Dec. 29.
He was 92. A close friend of science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke, a fellow futurist, Ogden predicted a future of teleports, limited labour unions, the growth of self-employment, and body implants that would turn people into cyborgs.
He travelled widely throughout his long life, giving lectures on all things high-tech and experimenting with different cultures, including studying voodoo in Haiti.
The nonconformist felt just at home on the neon-lit streets of Tokyo or the Sahara desert as he did in Vancouver. When he wasn't roaming the planet, Ogden worked from home on his wired houseboat in Vancouver's Coal Harbour, and was a pioneer in streaming live video Internet broadcasts.
From his floating electronic cottage, Ogden conducted the first two international seminars via satellite and fibre-optic technology, for Australia's Telstra Communications Network in Sydney and Melbourne.
Years before he started using the Internet to stream live video, Ogden predicted that the broadcast universe wouldn't be limited to 500 traditional channels, but would instead be a universe frequented by anyone with a camera, computer and limited money.
It was one of his many prognostications that he lived to see become a reality.
Cybersex was another, as Ogden had predicted 20 years ago the rise of what he called virtual sex.
Ogden, whose boundless curiosity and insight into the future of computers and satellites made him one of the world's foremost futurists, was ahead of his time when he wrote The Last Book You Will Ever Read and Other Lessons from the Future in 1993.

If you're a futurist, this is your time of year. David Houle, described as "America's leading futurist" on the cover of his new book, "Entering the Shift Age," has plenty to say about what's coming in 2013 and beyond.
"I look at 2010 to 2020 as the transformation decade. Most of your institutions will change in character and form," said Houle, speaking from his office in Chicago.
"This is the decade when legacy thinking will fall away at an alarming rate," he said.
"I grew up reading Alvin Toffler, Marshall McLuhan and Buckminster Fuller in the 1960s and 1970s. I coined the phrase, the shift age, five years ago," Houle said.
Among the institutions that will shift in this decade will be higher education, he said. "I'm predicting that (higher ed) will be the next big bubble," said Houle, pointing to mounting student debt and the indebtedness of universities.
The futurist said that even a basic thing like the concept of a job is going to change. "The job is a 300-year-old institution that's going away. People will become more like independent contractors," Houle said.
As for 2013, he had some specific predictions. "The Gross Domestic Product in this country will grow between 2 and 3 percent. Unemployment will be stuck around 7 percent. A barrel of oil will be in the $90 to $120 range while natural gas will stay cheap," Houle said.
Reto Gallati, president of Chicago-based Raetia Investments, and author of "Investment Discipline: Making Errors is OK, Repeating Errors is Not OK," offered his own economic predictions for 2013:
- GDP will grow 2.2 percent.
- Unemployment will improve to 7.3 percent this year.
