Google glasses / mobile devices will be wearable (yes pretty much like what u see in star trek).
SO, start making porn sites and apps for google glasses. Make it voice activated. |
The one thing I find kind of funny is how dismissive they are of some sites in that first article. They say that Facebook will disappear like Yahoo has, yet, last year Yahoo had over $4 billion in sales and roughly $1.3 billion in profit. Sure, it doesn't have the reach and power it once had, but it seems strange to me to just dismiss a billion dollar company as being non-existent.
That said, clearly the future is mobile and tablets. I have sites where 60% of my traffic is mobile. As tablet prices continue to drop, phones continue to improve and wi-fi/broadband continues to get cheaper and better we will see more of it.
I actually take some cue from my niece who is now 17. Two years ago she got a laptop and was on it constantly. Then she got an iPhone. Now the only time she is ever on the laptop is if she has to write a paper for school. She does everything else on her phone.
