Instant Prophecy

2010 has barely started and every tech blogger or blogress are quick to give us their prediction for the new year and decade. “10 new technologies to follow”, “10 most promising startups”, “10 new trends in social media”. Give me a break, will ya? How accurate were you for 2009?

Sure social media “will be big”. Sure cloud computing “is it”. Sure Apple will “definitely” release a tablet. Those are no predictions. It is just yesterday’s news. Then again, since the temple was destroyed, prophecy has been taken from prophets and given to fools and children.

Happy New Year!
