Ed's 2007 Technology Predictions
Ed Kohler
Ben was ready to roll on January 1st with his technology predictions for 2007. Me? I needed a few days to figure things out. But this leaves me with only 360 days for things to come true. We'll have to check back at the end of the year to find out which strategy works better. Here's what I see in the glowing glass dragon thing Ben bought that's illuminating our Las Vegas hotel room.

1. Flickr will add photo editing . . . beyond rotate.

2. Google will buy and integrate a web based PowerPoint competitor.

3. MySpace.com's page views in Dec 2006 will be the same or smaller in Dec 2007.

4. YouTube will add revenue sharing with video publishers.

5. Yahoo will acquire Blip.tv as to move them into revenue sharing with video publishers.

6. Google will launch a client based Email / RSS Reader.

7. MySpace and Facebook will launch mobile versions so students can get around blocked access at school.

8. Mobile advertising will take off, but with marginal results for advertisers.

9. Google Radio will have a restricted launch after securing ad space in major cities.

10. A US presidential candidate will be forced to drop out of the race based on the contents of a video published to YouTube.
