You’ve probably heard of the Internet of Things (#IoT), a catch-all to describe internet-connected #devices that can talk to one another, creating an #ecosystem of things like #smart #homes and smart #cars and smart #cities. 🏘🚘🏣⠀ ⠀ #Bacteria are the original #architects of the Internet of #Everything (IoE). #Microorganisms and their evolution are the foundation upon which #everything in this #world was created. Multitudes of minute, #magical interactions happen at every moment, humming along in an ecosystem of checks and balances. The closer we look, the more we see a vast jigsaw puzzle of intelligent #design, intricate connectivity, and incredible efficiency.⠀ ⠀ Plus, bacteria were #wireless before it was #cool.
