Eric Hellweg, an old friend of mine (and a troubadour ;-) who used to work with me at PC World magazine, wrote an interesting feature about the geeky things to look forward to in 2006 (in the December issue of PCW).
Strangely enough, I just spent part of last week preparing a similar (though shorter) feature for a woman’s magazine (article to be published in the January 2006 issue).
Very interesting paper.
