Some 2009 Web Predictions From Some Bigshots

Charlie O’Donnell had an idea to mesh some video predictions together for 2009. My daughter Rachel was kind enough to quickly film mine last week and Charlie did a great job.

He used two web services that I had never heard of to pull it together which with all the different formats sent, could not have been easy. One was motionbox.com which looks really cool and the other is Drop.io where we could privately drop off our videos.

In order of appearance in the video are:
