Facebook More Popular Than Google? Let the Ad Wars Begin
In the future, technohistorians may marvel at this event.
And if that curve continues on its trajectory, which it may well do for a while (its market share is 185% up over the same week in 2009, for example,) Facebook will become number one by a huge margin, versus the tiddly little 0.04% separation it currently has above Google's 7.03% share of average weekly market share.
Google search is a tool, and one that's getting smarter day by day--its future business is guaranteed. According to the latest Hitwise analysis, Google's lost its crown as the most-visited Web site in the U.S.

Questetra Helps Managing Business Processes Via The Web, Supports Google Apps
The way Questetra’s BPM suite (and similar products) work is that users chart business workflows to identify redundancies, “bottle necks” or conflicts in future company processes. All actions can be managed via a user-specific dashboard, and just like with Salesforce.com’s solution, for example, Questetra users don’t need to deal with any code.
Which employee does what, when, how and with which tools? That’s a critical question for many companies, which usually rely on business process management (BPM) solutions to visualize, streamline,

LadyGaga as a Service: Bringing Apple and Google to Commerce 2.0
This is where we think LadyGaga.com's promotion for Telephone stands out as an example of the new world economy. The user can can be set easily to bypass this step and enable the user one-click to buy from the web in the future.
In a twist of fate, in this version of digital music future the record labels win big. Lady Gaga, along with her record company, is evolving the album in the form of software as a service. Considering the content of her hit new video, Telephone , it is fitting that she would use software to tackle the hard problem of getting paid by

The Web of Identities: Making Machine-Accessible People Data
In an email, Chris Bizer hinted that a payment model to charge for particular content may come in future.
In the future, ID providers will loosen their connection to social applications and start taking over management of users' social attributes. ID providers will most likely refer to their users via URIs in the future as well. In a previous article, we discussed the Web of data , which is about inter-linking open data sets and, thus, turning them into machine-accessible structured data. In this post, we'll draw a picture of how the emerging social Web could serve as

Futures of the Internet
Earlier this year the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project and Elon University conducted research toward The Future of the Internet IV , the latest in their survey series , which began with Future of the Internet I – 2004 . This latest report includes guided input from subjects such as myself (a “thoughtful analyst,” they kindly said) on subjects pertaining to the Net’s future. We were asked to choose between alternative outcomes — “tension pairs” — and to explain our views. Here’s the whole list:

Ten Futures
Drawing on Richard MacManus's 10 Future Web Trends , this is a bit linear, but has the virtue of identifying future trends, not things that are around today. Money' is a perfect example of something that can exist in both realms. Mobility We will again in the future become a species of nomads, moving in tribes and herds through society, grazing on energy and information inputs as they become available. 1. The Pragmatic Web Forget about the Semantic Web.

The future of education – A course in futures thinking
The course I’m going to be teaching twice, once f2f in Singapore next month and as an open course with George Siemens starting in mid-April, is about the future of education. Using a method called “future thinking,” this course will look at a variety of trends and provide a series of potential scenarios and future directions. struggled with it, as it seemed to be a bit presumptuous Funny how these opportunities can present themselves sometimes.

Ten Useful Examples of the Real-Time Web in Action
Below are nine solid examples of real-time web technology that illustrate what it is and why it's important - and one possible future scenario that's important enough it has to be discussed as well.
If all webpages were PubSubHubbub enabled, for example, they could simply tell a Hub about any changes they had published and Google could find out via that Hub. The Real-Time Web - it's more than just immediate delivery of Twitter messages to an always-on mobile device, disrupting the concentration that civilization is based on and bringing a rush to crazed social media addicts obsessed with the hottest new buzzwords.

The Future of Online Learning: Ten Years On
files/future2008.doc In the summer of 1998, over two frantic weeks in July, I wrote an essay titled The Future of Online Learning. (Downes, We want a plan,” said my managers, and so I outlined the future as I thought it would – and should – unfold. In the ten years that have followed, this vision of the future has proven to be remarkably robust. An MS-Word version of this essay is available at http://www.downes.ca/files/future2008.doc Downes, 1998) At the time, I was working as a distance education and new media design specialist at Assiniboine Community College, and

Shift Happens – The Future of Advertising
Amazon continues to represent a leading edge example of how a trusted third party intermediary can help filter and present information about the interests and purchase patterns of others in ways that are very helpful in discovering new products. want to be clear: while I am skeptical about the long-term future of advertising as paid placements of messages, marketing becomes more and more important in an era of abundance. In a world of rapid change, shift piles upon shift. One can get thoroughly confused and draw the wrong conclusions by focusing on one change while losing sight

Information Age dawn still breaking
It’s fun to fact-check a futurist when plenty of future has already gone by. The third wave brings with it a genuinely new way of life based on diversified, renewable energy sources; on methods of production that make most factory assembly lines obsolete, on new, non-nuclear familes, on a novel institution that might be called the “electronic cottage”; and on radically changed schools and corporations of the future. We are accustomed, for example, to think of ourselves as producers Here’s some of what Alvin Toffler wrote thirty years ago in The Third Wave :
