What is Hot and What is Not in Technology
for 2011
Top 5 Winners Predicted for 2011
What is Hot
1. Virtual Cloud
Services that allow you to have your desktop in the
cloud will become common place in 2011.
2. Mobile Apps
Mobile applications are still and will continue to thrive
as people find new uses for their cell phones.
3. Virtual Technology
Working from home or on the road is growing
all, virtual technology businesses will continue to
prosper and thrive.
4. Connectivity
Cell signals and Internet connectivity
will reach remote areas, as staying connected regardless
of location becomes more important.
5. Scalability
If it doesnt scale, it will lose luster.
Scalability is hot, and a must for all technology in
todays society.
Top 5 Losers for 2011
What is Not Hot
1. Privacy
Privacy is back on the list, recent news
that mobile application providers collect data about
not only the location and habits of their users has
created more paranoia about personal information in
cyberspace.
2. Social Noise
Social media channels like Twitter are
drowning in spam, and the quality of the channel has
degraded with the rise of the chatter.
3. Transparency
Unfortunately the woven fibers of the
web, make it very easy for savvy individuals to hide
or obfuscate their identity. While transparency is preached
rarely is it practiced.
4. Regulation
We are not getting any closer to any type
of Internet standards or regulations. The Internet still
remains the wild west and while pressure can be applied,
there is still no centralized body for governing the
Internet.
5. Land Lines
Land lines will become a thing of the
past, as home phone numbers are replaced by phone numbers
for individuals.
