My appearance on tWIT's FourCast predicting the future w Tom Merritt, Scott Johnson and hak5er Shannon Morse
My predictions:
Near Term – Sarah Palin will run for the Republican nomination, win it and, if unemployment stays over 11% have a good shot at the Presidency. We discuss modern media mastery and manipulation and the merging of media, politics and celebrity all enabled by the Internets.
Longer Term – Arizona and Nevada will wage war on Canada for water who will defend itself by offering passports and donuts.
Longest Term – instant telepathy (first understood via Justin Hall at my SXSWContinuous Partial Attention show) and persistent openness forces us all to learn to be less judgemental and more meaningfully connected.
