Some really interesting points on the future... Predictions? Maybe, maybe not.

I look for CONSUMER reviews when I am buying online (which I prefer to do than go to the mall, generally speaking). I tend to head to the sites that offer that. Mind you I won't necessarily buy the product from that site. I also look for value for money, once I've decided the product I want.

I do work for a client that realizes that content is king. They produce much of their own content, and they then spread that around their network of sites.

I've never found any attraction in virtual worlds, such as Second Life, and now, Lively. Then again, I'm not a gamer. Perhaps if I was I would find them more fun. Myself, I'd rather have words and images, and perhaps audio and video where required. I don't need to be playing around with an avatar. It doesn't help in any way.

Portable networks? That's why I like Twitter so much. I can start a conversation on my desktop PC, and go seamlessly to SMS.

This guy complains about the noise from FriendFeed. Well, then, you're not using it correctly. Filter the noise by removing those creating it in your feed, that's quite simple
