Prediction for 2010

I like Don Dodge’s predictions for 2010, it seems as if we are about to enter the brave new world of mobile everything (commerce, computing, internet whatever), but I have been trying to figure out what bugs me about the predictions. I finally got it. Here is the answer. I was recently reminded of the scene in Star Wars when R2D2 plugs into the Death Star and turns off the trash compactor. In the brave new world of the future interoperability will be seamless. Think about all the devices we have (and shortly will have: the Android, the new Apple "pad" is that is what it will be, mp3 players etc.). Think about all the services (Pandora, Twitter, GPS directions etc.). My prediction is that 2010 will be another year of technology chaos demonstrating that we are still in the infancy of the technological age.
