Picture this - you could be sleeping in the car while it drives itself. It doesn't sound so ridiculous then.

Anyway, I think telecommuting is going to be the norm pretty soon. Commutes would themselves be rare. They might be a lot longer though.

Honestly, how many people can get up in the morning, get ready for work, go to a car and then just fall asleep again? I guess the percentage of people who will be able to sleep on a commute will be quite low; I know I wouldn't be able to do that.
And even if you could, would you really want to go directly from waking up to being at your desk?

Holograms. Imagine sitting next to a hologram, in a meeting or just in an office setting. This would be amazing, and is coming (I hope).

And until we perfect holograms, hopefully gear like oculus rift can fill that role.
