THING O1 / Social becomes the thread.

Social networks (mostly facebook) will solidify themselves as the real-time thread that holds our digital existence together. Our messaging, news, brand interactions, entertainment, search will all be delivered and filtered based on our social graph.

THING O2 / Location matters.

Your current location (and location habits) will further enhance the delivery of your digital experiences. Content will become increasingly aware of its surroundings and configure itself accordingly.

THING O4 / Birth of the frontchannel.

Experiences and interactions typically relegated to the “backchannel” will become more important (and engaging) than the original content. People will “tune in” to live events for the “frontchannel” interaction.

THING O6 / Life is a game.
