It seems like wherever you turn there are reviews of 2006 predictions, investigating what came true and what didn’t.

I’m going to do that also, but my predictions list is different because I made these predictions back in 2003 rather than at the beginning of the year. In 2003 I actually made a list of predictions spanning from late 2003 to 2075. So here are the 2006 predictions from that list, made four years ago by yours truly:

1. Floppy Drives will become obsolete.
This has certainly happened indeed!

2. PDAs will become obsolete in favor of multi-purpose cellphones.
Not quite, but we might be heading in that direction.

3. Robotics will be in almost all toys
Well, maybe not robotics, but certainly electronics!

4. 14.0 GHz proccessors will be available
Woah, maybe not: we’re still at 4 GHz. However, realize that this was written during an era of huge acceleration in the development of ever-greater processor speeds.

So I was right-on in some areas, close in others, and totally wrong in others. Sounds like a typical predictions list to me! :-P
