‘Tis the season for predictions, state-of-the-industry wraps, and fruitcake. I am not a big fan of fruit cake, it is sickly sweet, and all the pontificating can get pretty rich and heavy too.
But where would we be without these time-honored rituals? They offer a certain comfort and familiarity. As sure as the year will turn, you can also be sure that the world will continue spinning on its axis, we’ll see prediction stories, top trends and news items lists will abound, press releases will not die, and there will be more death and taxes too. On that cheery note, I thought I’d jump in with my own end-of-year post.
It is based on some of the prediction stories I have seen, and top ones cited in Google general Web and blog searches as well as ones that I saw shared on Twitter.
I copied the text from these and plugged them into the Wordle tag cloud generator (below). An interesting collection of words, although I am not sure if it is that illuminating quite honestly.
Anyway, thanks for stopping by and hope you have a happy new year.
