Bacon said " A man that hath wife and children hath hostages to fortune" (or something like it) well a pundit who committeth his predictions to text hath hostages to his credibility. On the other hand not having any credibility in the first place makes predictions rather fun. So with the caveat that all these are plucked from thin air and absolutely not to be relied upon here are my predictions for 2007:

• Someone will be fired via Twitter


• An Ohio based teen will be seriously injured playing WWE on the Wii....while driving


• A motorist will be fined for speeding after police follow their geo-cached mobile phone along a stretch of the M4


• At least one broadsheet journalist will announce that just as TV replaced the wireless so online video is replacing podcasting..without spotting the flaw in the argument


• Cute Overload will be turned into a major motion picture


• Mydadspace will launch for disco-dads


• Viral marketeers will be stopped at Heathrow after trying to take an incredible machine on as hand luggage


• Everyone will have Moo cards and no-one will be able to organize their rolodex (wait was Megacorps CEO the fluffy kitten or the artistic photo of a leaf?)


• Lifehacker will be unavailable because they forgot to renew their domain name


• Boing Boing will break up over "artistic-differences"


• At least one newspaper columnist will describe blogging as "so yesterday"
