Predictions for 2011

[Suu]

RWHN will be buried alive in snow.  Icey will claim it was magick. 

The snow storms will also continue every Tuesday and Wednesday until April.

Nope. But they did last for most of the month of February on Tuesday and Wednesdays.

And the universities will have to cancel spring break. I'll be hearing the backlash from pissed off 18 year olds that wanted to get crunk in Mexico.

This did not happen because the teacher's union kicked in, but the university was ready to do it. Extra days were tacked on to the end of my school year and finals were flipped all around so I had 2 huge ones on the same day. ~_~

Automated CCTV facial recognition will be trialled in a major UK or US city using data bought from Facebook.

Perhaps that's a 2012 prediction, but I'm sticking with it as inevitable.

Getting warmer.

(Okay, I cheated a bit. It's not proper facial recognition. Still, you'll have your every location tracked.) Now to wait for the algorithms that scan for BEHAVIOUR OF INTEREST.

Many governments around the world will raise taxes to get rid of their budget deficits; this will destroy the economy, many large companies will fail and their websites will shut down causing a total breakdown of the internet (don't believe me? imagine what happens when the top 5 search-engines, youtube, amazon and facebook are gone.)
Alternatively the governments won't raise taxes, and the needed budget cuts will destroy the economy; same results as above.

Everything that isn't produced in china or india will become more expensive but nowhere near as expensive as food will become.
You will not get a raise.

Shit, they're stalling. Now it will be worse! though i no longer believe it will happen before 2015, they'll just stall and stall and continue to keep the wound wet making the problem worse and worse. Even China will not escape the coming collapse.
You will still not get a raise.
