Futurist Jack Uldrich's Predictions for 2012

Jack Uldrich is a renowned global futurist, independent scholar, sought-after business speaker, and best selling author. His books include the best-selling, The Next Big Thing is Really Small: How Nanotechnology Will Change the Future of Your Business, and the award-winning books, Into the Unknown: Leadership Lessons from Lewis & Clark’s Daring Westward Expedition.

He takes an interesting look as a futurist into what's in store for 2012 in his Predictions for 2012 on his Jump the Curve blog.

From Blackout Friday (facial recognition for retailers), free college classes for the unemployed, and politically charged apps, he thankfully doesn't predict the world will end.

The most interesting of the predictions are virtual grocery stores (which have already been seen in Asia) but will pop up in DC later this year and phone food sensors (developed by two Purdue students) which is an app that detects the type and level of chemicals used on fresh produce.
