temporaneità

It’s too easy to quote one of the well known sentences of Bill Gates, like:

Spam will be a thing of the past in two years’ time.
BBC News (24 January 2004)

and make fun of him, because everyone has skeletons in their closet; so I would like to spread a new meme: quote one of your worst predictions and shout your meal culpa mea culpa loudly .

One of my favourite is:

Are you telling me that he left a telco to join a startup that sells music on the Internet? That’s insane: it won’t work!
Me - approximately 1999

Tag two friends (it doesn’t matter if they come from meatspace or not, because you won’t find more than two people ready to publicly write about their own mistakes): I chose to tag Andreas and Marco… but everyone else can join this chain and ping me back, though.
