Reflections, Predictions, and Trends: 2010’s New Day

Posted by heatherrast on January 1st, 2010

Last year, I published a post of of links to 2009 prediction posts made by others. This year, I’ve collected over 55 prediction/forecast posts and a slew of review/analysis posts (both on 2009 and the decade).

As we close one year and breathe a collective, fortifying breath before propelling into the next, its important that we take measure of pressures, events, and developments across a spectrum of input areas shaping life and business: economic, political, technological, philosophical, cultural, and social. When you read these posts, consider the myriad of influences shaping the world around us, the world we live in. And tomorrow, after the libations wear off?  Make a little commitment to yourself to squeeze the most out of every single moment.  We get a do-over.

Happy New Year!

  5. Great Collection of some of the greatest thinkers! Social Media Marketing is going to become huge in 2010 and especially taking it mobile now with the introduction of cell phones dedicated to social media networking. I just wish I could convince more companies here in Alberta to get on board with the social media trends!
