Between all the holiday cheer and over-eating the past few days, I spent some time reading through a variety of predictions for 2008, and collected some interesting ones here.What’s the next big thing? What current trends will catch on? What new ones will emerge? What new handheld device(s) will appear? What’s in store in the social networking sphere? Who will buy whom? Will it be Google everything? Will advertisers figure out online advertising? What about H.264? Mobile web? Live web channels? CDN consolidation? IPTV? HD on the web? P2P content delivery? WiFi? Open social? Semantic searches? What else will be in store for 2008? It will certainly be an interesting year to come.
