Trends in Tech or Tech in Trends

the tech that comes tomorrow will probably be far more awesome than you can imagine today.
 Interesting Slate piece on predictions about the internet--that it would suck.  Predicting is a hard business.  This piece goes through a variety of factors that caused people to underestimate the internet, and, by extension, why other predictions may be wrong as well. 

Of course, because it might be required by law for any piece on tech trends to address the singularity issue, the piece does end with a suggestion that the rise of the machines may not be that far away.
