And yes, this is a blatant plug in a way, but I’m very excited to have a working prototype of what I call a #SmartAd, which is a Flash ad that advertisers can update via Twitter (by using the #SmartAd hashtag). A working example can now be seen with @IslandTresses ad on marthasvineyardyoga.com. I hope that making ads Social will inject new life and effectiveness into the ads we’ve all trained ourselves to ignore.

A strong footnote for #2 should be augmented reality – here’s another area where Google is already racking up a lot of cred in my book. Goggles’ initial success tells me that AR is going to be very important in emergent tech this year.

Too many of the iPhone apps are shovelware. You have companies out there that are focused on just creating as many apps as possible because they know a few people will buy them.

I’d much rather see a smaller number of higher quality, more useful apps on Android. But unfortunately I suspect that if Android takes off it will get the same crap.

  • Better search, no more link farms with junk text.

    • I wanted to build a tunnel maze with my son for his Gerbils. Since they destroy everything, what better to use then Bamboo? So a quick search for Bamboo poles in our area. Result pages on Google all junk. Link farms with clearly no info even a “Page coming soon” showed up under the first 3 Google returns(with links sponsored by Bing). Pathetic. Bing was a little better.

    I don’t think keyword search will prosper in this decade. Looks to me like the spammers and scamers are better at analyzing and reverse engineering (Page Rank) then Google and Microsoft is in analyzing their stupid scam pages.

While I agree with Kevin when he says it is about getting online shoppers noticing display ads again I think it is going to be a much bigger up hill climb that he, or others think. [...]
