Please help me collect 'prediction failures', that is technologies or products that EVERYONE thought would be huge but ended up failing. I'll start with an old one: Quadraphonic sound It was an excellent experience but hard to setup and limited by few recordings.
Adewale, thanks for the mention. I think it is more looking like the CP/M computer interface of 1976. Wait till you see what true contextual personal assistants bring.

When I say "crash" I don't mean 'vanish'. I mean Gartner hype cycle "Trough of Disillusionment". What we're using it for now is quite different than the hype.

Scott, I hear ya. You know Gartner started out the hype cycle on the personal computer. It crashed in disillusionment but was it accurate? You have a personal computer in your pocket. You will have a personal assistant—everywhere.
