2011 Predictions: Mike Melanson

Editor’s note: Every December the ReadWriteWeb team looks into the murky depths of the coming year and tries to predict the future. How did we do last year? Well, Facebook didn’t go public, Google Wave didn’t make a comeback, and Spotify didn’t make it to the U.S. But our forecasts for Google Chrome, cloud computing, Facebook and something we called the “iTablet” were spot on. What’s in store for 2011? All this week we’ll be posting our predictions. Let us know your prognostications in the comments.

1: The idea of the “real-time Web” will become the standard as dynamic, real-time content permeates every corner of the Web. Beyond updates, commenting, and news, the movement toward real-time will finally begin to fully realize the connection between the Web and the Internet of Things. Instead of hacks and mashups telling us when the next bus is coming or what point in the journey our package is in, we’ll have real-time tracking via RFID or other IOT technologies.

2: Complex Internet TV systems like Google TV will find a way to become screen-agnostic or simpler, cheaper systems like Roku Box will win out with consumers. For these more complex integrations to work, they’ll also need to refine their operating systems and offer integration with a wider variety of cable TV content. We have plenty of access to our email already. We don’t want to pay $300 to see it on our TV screen too.

3: Mobile payment systems will continue to make in-roads in the US, especially as online payment systems become more widely accepted. They won’t, however, have the same traction as these same systems in countries where the realities of everyday life necessitate them. (IE mobile payment systems in parts of Africa help workers protect themselves from getting mugged on their monthly pay day, according to one story I remember hearing on NPR.)

4: Speaking of money, we’re going to see Facebook really do something with its virtual currency, Facebook Credits, over the next year. So far, the company got rid of its virtual gift store and made credits available for purchase using PayPal. They’re now usable for in-game purchases, but we have yet to see the cross-over to the real world. We might see Facebook Credits become a real live currency in 2011, with users having the ability to buy tickets to events (remember that Eventbrite partnership stuff we saw earlier this year?) and maybe even make phone calls over Skype (there has to be more to that Skype/Facebook partnership, right?).

5: Over the last several months, we’ve heard more and more that Twitter is not just a place to go and tell us what you did for lunch – it’s a place to go read about what other people ate for lunch. Okay, I jest. But really, Twitter is working on transitioning to a more consumer friendly, consumption-based tool and that’s what we’re going to see in 2011. The website redesign was just the beginning. Now, the company is going to figure out (beyond a list of 10 trending topics) how to filter and aggregate all that content and make it useful to the average Web user. And then stick some more advertising in there, likely of the local variety.

AOL Acquires TechCrunch and Mike Arrington is Really Excited About It

Yesterday the news broke that AOL had acquired TechCrunch, the technology-oriented and web properties community. A lot of speculation has been going around as to what will happen to the soul of TC and all the people that work there. In the post, Mike Arrington lays it all out on the line.

Arrington explains that nothing is going to change on the blog, they will continue to write and run it as they always have, and that is precisely what AOL wants them to do. He goes on to say that the thing that made the deal the most enticing is the fact that he himself would now have more time to contribute to posts with his writing instead of having to worry about “endless tech problems”. Since AOL runs “the largest blogging network in the world”, Mike and his team need only focus on things that make them great – their tech talk.

He says that he will be staying on for a “very, very long time” and that his staff have all been given good incentive to do the same. I for one am concerned about the future of TC, as it is definitely a daily read for me in my line of work. I know that TechCrunch has a huge and loyal following of techies and non-techies alike that would be very disheartened to see the site take a turn for the worst or become watered down to an AOL-praising series of daily love letters; Arrington assures us this will not be the case. With that said, I offer my humble congratulations to the Mike Arrington, AOL, and the entire TC team for the seemingly good fit!

Lets hope this brings about a stronger, more thriving TechCrunch!

Mike Grehan, the new VP and Global Content Director, ties social media to search, SES San Jose 2009


Mike Grehan, the newly-anointed VP and Global Content Director at SES, SEW, and clickz, (www.clickz.com talks with Greg Jarboe of SEO-PR about the search world’s attempted transition into social media, and the challenges this poses for traditional search engine marketers and organic search engine optimization professionals. Grehan believes in the importance of thinking beyond linkbait tactics to a more comprehensive engagement with social media, of creating networks of trust in terms of establishing long-term relationships and capacities instead of chasing short-term payoffs which too often come up dry. The real-time capacity of social networks allows them to generate content and enrich available information in an extremely dynamic fashion, and, argues Grehan, as social media tools and search engines come closer to some form of convergence, both will find their functionality and their ability to work with information intensified.
