This video gives an idea of what is the Internet Things about.
From what I understand from the video, The Internet Things means objects is connected via the Internet. For example, one day your house table is talking to my house's table. This might happen one day in the future.
The video gives figure shown in 2010, shown there are 5 million of objects are connected, and in 2020, there are 50 millions of objects are connected. That's object not human being!
A decade ago, I remember my uncle brought a new house, and one day his and his family went to a trip, no one was stay in the house for that week. The first day of his trip, his neighbor was about to call the police, because he thought someone is in the house and the TV is on. My uncle had installed system to control his house electronic and electric via his phone, which better known as Smart House. Luckily the neighbor called my uncle first before he report to the police.
The Internet things is just something like this but it is connected another way round. Smart House in ten year back is still passive. Like what we can observe in our surrounding- Everything need to be interactive able!

Iphone 4s is just the beginning of the Internet things!
In my opinion, I happy the new technology, but I prefer alone sometime. Objects definitively don't know how human think, or even they can sense it, but they do not know it some how. If one day I want to be alone but I was surrounded but these objects, and they are observing... it's kinda irritating....
