See I said this meme thing was going to get out of hand and the only reason I’m answering is because the sex goddess tagged me.
5 Predictions for 2007
I’m going to go with the long shots…
- Matt Cutts takes a long vacation somewhere where it’s warm, sunny filled with wonderfully pristine beaches and brilliant azure colored water. Decides he doesn’t need to put up with annoyingly whiny bloggers and wise ass combative SEO’s making extra work for him. Announces he will retire form Google. After 6 months gets tired and forms a consulting think working on really cool projects and charities that help underprivileged children bridge the technology gap.
- Digg.com, Netscape.com and other social media players catch on and realize that SEO’s make up a majority of their members. Even though they are engaging in shameless self promotion they are also some of the biggest and most active contributors to the site. They also are the most mature and don’t act like high school cliques because they don’t like the viewpoint of a particular story.
- Google realizes the weight they put on authority sites in their current trust based algorithm marginalizes all but the top 1% of websites. Instead of focusing their attention on looking for indicators of spam they focus on looking for signals of quality.
- Seven consecutive days goes by without Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, or Britney Spears doing some incredibly shocking, and stupid thing that generates an exceptional amount of buzz
- People stop tagging me with meme threads (unless their really good and I haven’t done one in 6 months)

If Matt does choose to go the azure water and warm beaches route, I highly recommend getting scuba certified and coming down to Scuba Club Cozumel. It’s about 80 degrees here right now, water temperature is 78 degrees, 100 feet of visibility, and the best part — no cruise ships in port, as it is Sunday, so few tourists are going to be in town when we go to celebrate New Year’s Eve. And the place has wifi to remind Matt as to why he wants to stay on vacation.
Matt’s recent post may indicate that he is contemplating a retirement from Google and could be his first foray into preparing us for the transition.
From Matt’s Blog:
>>”I love working at Google, but at some point my wife is going to wake up and smell the coffee. She’ll say “Hey, we agreed we’d try this Google thing for four or five years, and then I’d get to pick what to do next. It’s been like eight years now! When do we move on to our next adventure?—
uh huh huh, you said “nad”. “nad the only reason I’m answering is because”
i think that we will see more of matt’ clons …
Well I don’t think that Matt Cutt’s will be send for vacation.But I do agree to the point that he should take a break to enhance his creativity.
