The next big thing...

[Rob Shavell]

nano, bio, and power tech legit contenders, sure.  i vote for the
intersection of normalization and plugnplay programming.. when EAI for
dummies actually works and people agree on what to name things in
directories - for simple convenience sake.  the holy grail of
RAD/middleware/interface exposure etc. will allow people to get processors
to 'do' what they 'want', then they just have to agree on standard semantic
language..  ingredients: better web services +mp3 style latent semantics
+poor economy.  shake well. cook for a couple years.  then people left
stranded w/horrible task of figuring out explicitly what they 'want' done.
