Predictions

Everyone in my field of work likes to make predictions. In fact, for the most part we make predictions because we’re trying to keep ahead of the curve. Some of these things turn out to be correct, most turn out to be wrong. The only bad thing about making a prediction is when you try to hold to that prediction, long after it’s been proven wrong. When people do this, it’s just annoying. When companies do it, you see divergent standards and confused implementations of products.

I’m going to start writing up some of my strategic predictions for the coming years/decaces under the category Predictions. Maybe I’ll look back on this in a few years a laugh at my misunderstandings.
