My 2010 Predictions

While some of these seem tongue-in-cheek they are based on trends I've seen over the last several years. I first tweeted them and decided to drop them into a blog post so that commenting could accompany the actual items.

Watch the future disappear

Watch the past disappear

If you fee strongly about something you read, then go ahead and comment.
Think I missed something? Add it.

  1. Mobile (rolling) hotspot using inter-car connected wi-fi. One car subscribes then using bridging, all are connected.
  2. Flexible phone with at least a 5" multi-touch screen. Names such as "Roll-and-Go" or "Flexiform" will start to be sold.
  3. Twitter partners with ATM companies to allow updating twitter status for those without devices. Banking updates = fad.
  4. Highly viral application connects all social networks and is used by travel agents to notify friends when traveling.
  5. First self-aware garbage can tracks consumption and generates list for grocery store. Partnered with RFID companies.
  6. Worlds first "real" neighborhood becomes 100% Facebook connected, delivers community meeting with all in attendance.
  7. You will be hollered at by a live Ad (billboard), using your online moniker, while in an airport (Twitter enabled spam).
  8. First high school graduation live blogging by students draws more online attendance than at the event.
  9. Quad-core Netbook with 3 Gb of memory, 250 Gb SSD running Moblin/Win7 dual-boot for under $400.
  10. IE6 is still being ran on more desktops than Google Chrome.
