We look back on how we did on the 2021 predictions
Our predictions for 2022
Ron Krause believes Xbox and Microsoft will have a big year
Gamepass and cloud gaming will grow even more
Chilla thinks streaming peripherals will dominate the tech industry (webcams, mics, etc)
Podnar thinks non-tesla Electric cars will become more common
Dudders thinks TikTok will continue to dominate: Compensating creators, more ads now, not just for young folks, algorithm is so good. Someone will get social audio correct (Not Clubhouse, Spaces). Continue to see a decrease in organic reach especially with FB. Everyone wants to make money.
Sorg sees more strides in virtual events
