2008 was the year of Facebook.
2009 was the year of Twitter.
I predict 2010 will be the year Foursquare makes it’s mark as an established part of the social network furniture. (That’s of course if Facebook doesn’t outsmart them with by launching a compelling location-based bolt-on.)
Check these stats out.

Sir Clive: "I don't use a computer at all. The company does."
Interviewer: "So you don't do email?"
Sir Clive: "No. I've got people to do it for me."
Interviewer: "If friends and family want to communicate?"
Sir Clive: "They can do that. We've got a computer in the front office, but I get someone to do it for me."
Interviewer: "That seems odd to me. Why is that?"
Sir Clive: "Sheer laziness I think. I can't be bothered."
Interviewer: "Do you not know how to operate it?"
Sir Clive: "I do know how to, but I don't."
Interviewer: "Sorry to press, but it seems the simplest thing in the world to do your own emails."
Sir Clive: "Well I find them annoying. I'd much prefer someone would telephone me if they want to communicate. No, it's not sheer laziness -- I just don't want to be distracted by the whole process. Nightmare."
