Web 2.0 Predictions for the New Year

Dion Hinchcliffe’s Web 2.0 Blog has a great post about what we will probably see happening in 2008 in the Web 2.0 realm. Here are some of the more interesting predictions:

  • As social media begins to mature and new online stars emerge, a new industry of Web 2.0 talent agents and production companies will form to provide professional help. YouTube star Esmee Denters is a perfect example of the potential of online talents.
  • Ownership of data contributed to Web 2.0 sites becomes a growing PR issue. I like this quote of Hinchcliffe’s: “the more control you give up, the more value you tend to get back.” Many websites (even 2.0 ones) still haven’t caught on to this idea.
  • The Web moves into the living room. We will want to participate on the Web using a large screen for entertainment.
