OK.. you want predictions? You got predictions!
- Mike Arrington gets his own late night TV show. Broadcast nightly from the Tech Crunch Mansion, Tech Crunch After Dark features guest appearences by Mort Sahl, Chris Messina and Barbi Benton.
- Naked Conversations shoots to the top of the bestseller list. Shel Israel and Robert Scoble go on a talk show junket. Due to widespread missunderstanding of the phrase “naked conversation” used in conjunction with the names Shel Israel and Robert Scoble, the Today Show experiences its lowest ratings ever. Shel Israel chides me for not linking to him in this paragraph.
- The phrase “Web2.0″ is replaced with the phrase “Not your grandfather’s dot coms.” An army of 40-something tech industry workers suddenly feel very old.
- After a series of 43Folders entries like “Your paycheck, put it in the bank so you can pay your bills,” and “Post-It Notes – little, yellow, different, better,” Merlin Mann is voluntarily admitted to the Steve Rubel Center for the Treatement of Bloggers’ Block.
- Shel Israel smacks me upside the head for not linking to 43Folders.
- Figuring if Brian Oberkirch can do it… blogging conferences receive a glut of entries from PR people for case studies on disaster-related blogs. Typical entries include “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia and I Couldn’t Find a Flashlight” and “Are You Chilly? Should I Close a Window?”
- Steve Rubel’s entry “Hacking Starbucks: just buy a small coffee – it costs the same fifty cents per refill as the large” provokes an outraged Jeremy Pepper to accuse Rubel of encouraging theft. The hack is recounted on LifeHacker, provoking a ‘duh!’ from the Starbucks Gossip Blog.
- Shel Israel takes away my blogging merit badge for not linking to any of the above.
- The other 25% say ‘wha?’
Got a problem with any of the above??
