iPad won’t be the only tablet on the market anymore. Many companies have their own tablets in development that may prove to be cheaper and fix the iPad’s shortcomings. Apple, though, might give the their tablet a newer, younger sibling. Social networking is also changing. Google is trying to cash in on some of Facebook’s success, by creating their own social network: Google Me.
Cloud computing is spreading quickly too. The reasons are accessibility, cost, and backups. All these problems are solved by storing information in clouds. Big changes in data storage are coming too. “Think big and fast in 2011. Traditional mechanical hard drives will be available in 3-terabyte (TB) capacities and larger — and at prices that will be budget-friendly.”
Also mentioned are faster Internet networks, new smartphones to rival the big names, and improved USB standards. The thing to remember about reading this article is that these upgrades won’t happen only India, but the rest of the world as well.
