JustinSpeak

Every other blogger under the sun is weighing in on MacWorld keynote predictions, so I figured I’d give it a shot. My dearest reader, I bring you the top ten predictions for Macworld 2009 by the editors at JustinSpeak.

Top Ten Last Minute Predictions for MacWorld 2009

1. There will be no iphone nano - It makes no sense to cannibalize sales of the original iphone at this point. Give Apple another year or so and then we’ll see iphones in multiple colors and a nano line of some sort.
2. Apple won’t ever do a netbook or a tablet. If anything, they’ll combine the two into some sort of large form factor iphone.
3. The keynotes will still be hour long nerdgasms for the Apple faithful even though Steve Jobs isn’t doing them.
4. With a couple dozen blogs and twitter feeds covering this thing, it really makes no sense to ever try to go to one of these things in person. Just get it all off the Web.
5. As always, the real star of the show will be some innovative app that some enterprising software company will whip up. The hardware is cool, but its the software on the Mac that makes us all happy.
6. Pompous bloggers, such as myself, will have predictions and wrap ups for it that nobody really cares to read.
7. MacWorld will whet our appetites for CES.
8. Apple.com will be slow as shit minutes after the keynote.
9. We won’t hear anything about a Mac Pro update.
10. The iWork software will get better, but it still won’t be used by anyone.

There you go homies. Tha troof.

So I’m launching two new blogs this year. As much as I love JustinSpeak, I need to have some blogs with a purpose. First up is SchmidtyStock, a wedding / engagement blog that will be run yours truly and my lovely wife to be Lindsey. The second is my marketing blog called JustinMarket.

Both of these sites are up and running, but expect them to morph and change and grow as we go through the year.

Happy 2009 everyone!

Happy New Year’s Eve everyone! This post will be a good old top ten list. Also, be on the lookout for two new blogs launching tomorrow…

1. I got a dog named Ava.
2. Neither the Boston Red Sox, or the New England Patriots won a championship.
3. Watching the Olympics.
4. Getting this blog to rank number one on Google for Justin Schmidt.
5. “Dear Science” by TV on the Radio
6. Seeing Radiohead for the second time in concert.
7. Buying my Taylor GS5.
8. The experience of living in my shit hole apartment.
9. Meeting Lindsey
10. Getting engaged to Lindsey.

I have to share something with you, my dearest reader. Now that I rank number one on Google for “Justin Schmidt,” I have to be somewhat careful about what I say on this blog. If my employer, or a client of my employer, or anyone for that matter, Google’s me they ARE going to find this site. If you’ve been a long time reader of JustinSpeak, then you know that I can at times get a little mouthy. I don’t want to censor myself, but I do have to be careful. It kinda sucks.

On another note, look for the first official sister site to JustinSpeak early next year. I’m going to start another blog that will actually have a point! Shocking, no?

Happy Hollidays everyone.
