REmail
Each day, there’s some number of Google+, Linkedin, Facebook, and Twitter notifications in my email inbox. Ironic that these communications services, seemingly wanting to be as ubiquitous as email, need to use email as a primary notification service.
And the daily deal space (Groupon, Living Social, et. al.) are 95% email.
Every couple of days, I’m asked, ‘What comes after Twitter, Facebook, (etc)?’
I don’t know, I’m in email.

Back in May, I wrote Turn On, Tune In, Opt Out. I’m increasingly confident that it’s the next big trend in technology.
For the past 7 years, my bellwether for innovative, compelling, new technologies has been Dave Winer. Even before Google+ has been opened up to the general Google public – he’s taken a look and said, no thanks.
DuckDuckGo is looking more attractive every day.
