What Gartner Thinks The Big Trends Of The Next Decade Are
from the ho-hum dept
David Coursey is taking issue with Gartner's latest predictions for the top four business/tech trends of the next decade. Three of the trends seem obvious, and the last one just seems weird. The obvious ones: customer "self-service" online, web services, and wearable computing. Of course, my bet is that all of these will come about in different ways that Gartner is predicting. The last one is something to do with "tagging", which seems to be Gartner's way of reinventing the term "metadata" while sounding like consultants.

Who pays these jokers anymore? They are just another by product of a bull economy. No one pays tea leaf readers in a recession.
Heres a prediction for you. ALL useless bloated fat will be trimmed over the next 10 year. Gartner, GO AWAY already.

Re: No Subject Given
On the contrary, Gartner/Dataquest/etc had been around in one form or another long before the recent bull market and will continue to exist as long as corporate middle managers are more focused on dealing with internal politics than keeping up with technologies themselves. (In other words, forever.)

Middle managers will be cut as well. No more Gartner as well. No one needs them anymore. Lots of excesses are exposed for what they are, in a depression. You underestimat the magnitude of the times ahead. THe next decade will be a lean one. no need to pay idiots for predictions. Use a tarot card reader for that. much cheaper

Re: No Subject Given
Gartner was founded in 1979. Probably didnt do meaningful business until a few years later. Lo and behold, well, we've been in a bull market since 1982. Let's see what happens to over the NEXT 20 years, when people cant hide behind money being thown all over the place.
