Poll: Top Web Technology During Next 10 Years

This week's poll is a tough one, because we're asking you to predict the future. But we hope you're game enough to vote, because it'll give us some clues on what to write about in Web Future Week ;-)

We're asking: Which Web technology do you think will have the most impact over the next 10 years? In some ways it's a follow-on to a poll we ran at the end of 2006, asking about 2007 Web Trends. But this one is a longer view.

It is of course very difficult to predict what will happen in 10 years time, given how fast technology moves. Who would've predicted in 1997 that a search engine company would rule the Web tech world in 2007. Probably not many people, given that Google wasn't formed until September 1998. It's possible that the dominant web technology of 2017 doesn't even exist yet, or is a twinkle in a Stanford Uni student's eye (or maybe a Shanghai Uni student).

So here is our poll, please vote your best guess:
