By now, everyone should know how SI, and the LOLCats who live under the desks, feel about futurists and their predictions. (You need only scroll back to December 31’s post if you have forgotten.)
So, needless to say, as per prior years, SI is not going to be jumping on the prediction bandwagon (and risk getting trampled by fellow bloggers on the way) as the new year rolls in.
That being said, it has to give a shout out to one prediction from a fellow blogger who may just have it right. Specifically, Peter Smith of Spend Matters UK who, pressed for a prediction, made the amazingly accurate prediction that we predict that all predictions will be wrong.
SI could not have said it better if asked.
LOLCat approves!
