Five hot technologies for 2007

Yesterday Computerworld published an interesting article predicting five technologies will be hot over the next 12 months:

1. Ruby on Rails - web application development framework

2. NAND Flash drives - solid state mass storage with big enough capacity to substitute for small hard drives and 100x the performance

3. Ultra-Wideband (UWB) - short range wireless at 200x the speed of Bluetooth

4. Grid Computing - rent a data center by the gigabyte such as Amazon's S3 service

5. Advanced CPU architectures on higher-density chips
