Forecasting is not only telling the
weather.
The idea is to share the issues and methods of those companies whose aim is to look forward into social, economical, political, technological and cultural trends or futures studies.
For instance, www.we-make-money-not-art.com brings a number of visions and visionary items;
www.landliving.com tries to get together ideas about habitation in its widest sense;
www.flylosophy.com reports monthly about global tendencies of all issues;
www.iftf.org brings as a research center top reviews about upcoming issues of global concern;
just to put a few examples.
Among other interesting topics are new inventions for everyday lives, or technologies for energy issues, or models for climatic change which is a very burning issue lately. There can be found new theories such as smartplaces and in general the smart movement www.smart-cities.net or www.smartcityradio.com; and new music listening tools like www.last.fm or www.liveplasma.com.
