Chicken? We’ve all got to place career bet’s for next year. “What he said” isn’t exactly on the mark. How are you changing your life in anticipation of 2008?
I predict that watching video on a iPhone/iTouch via WiFi/Safari/Quicktime will be very popular this year and a viable way to distribute ad supported video.
I discovered how to watch Rocketboom on my TV from my iTouch here: http://podslug.com/blog/?p=114 … I predict that many more content sites will enable over-the-air (WiFi) video playback on the iTouch.
I like his predictions this year, really clear and fairly precise. Last year a couple were pretty broad (e.g. A major internet company will run into privacy/trust issues).
@13 Them does that mean in 2008 there will be no references to how many interviews you did,how many links they got, how many “CEOs” you talked to, how many conferences you got invited to speak at,how many feeds you read, etc?

Hmmm… Counting your recent Battelle references, I’d predict that you Robert will join Federated Media.

Let us dare to start predicting for the beginning of the next decade.
At the rate things are going - it will be a change in society’s interaction not seen since the invention and mainstreaming of the telephone

Guys,
Stop predicting and start DOING THINGS.
Lots of stuff out there is HYPE, EX-AGGREGATION, BUSINESS and SURVIVAL activity.

I predict that top bloggers will continue to cop-out with “important people listen to me” in face of declining relevance.

Christopher: you got it backward. In 2008 I listen to important (and non-important) people.
