Want to take a look into the future to plan your future strategy? That's anyone's guess. But Memebox.com now offers the Future Scanner, a vaguely Digg-tool that gives some hints of future directions. From cell phones with mini-projectors hitting the market next year to GM introducing an electronic car in 2010.
Not the best designed site, which means it won't appeal to everyone, but it's worth a peek.
As for predicting the future, it's still fraught because unexpected stuff will always keep happening. Think of 9/11, think of the rise of Google. I explore those issues here. Which means tools like this will always have limitations.
Still, Future Scanner is worth checking out, even if it's only to give you a sense of context of what's going on.
