This entry is part 4 of 9 in the series 01: Things to come

1) Intel and AMD’s battle in the MIPS/watt game will take servers below 30 watts/core

2) Second Life’s peak concurrency, currently at 25,000, will reach 150,000

4) A Second Life development company, such as Electric Sheep or Rivers Run Red, will surpass 100 employees

6) At least one Presidential candidate will use Second Life to build a community around issues rather than simply holding a single press conference

8) Relay for Life will raise over US$200k in Second Life this year

And, of course, the free one is that the Open Source viewer will be used in ways that none of us would have predicted.
