Yesterday was IoT Day, and it has me thinking about the evolution of the IoT (Internet of Things)—something I chronicled in-depth on The Peggy Smedley Show yesterday. The day was first organized more than a decade ago in 2010 by the IoT Council.

Even before that when we first introduced the M2M (machine-to-machine) technology to push us forward to find our way forward to the IoT.
