From What’s Next Trend Maps we have a trend map for 2009. In the words of the creator:
I’ve been tearing interesting articles out of newspapers and magazines for over twenty years. And for over twenty years I’ve regularly lost them or put them somewhere I can’t find them. So eventually I had an idea. Why not re-write these articles to highlight the key points and connections and then archive them online where they would be easy to find? Better still, why not create a website so that other people could find them too?
Also check out the key innovations timeline. Or read the book.
Fascinating stuff, thanks for the heads-up.
