What’s Your Take on These Key Trends?

Seems like every day there is a new trend or or product offering – or an old one that is given new life because circumstances or people change.  This week we’d like your quick current take on six key industry trends – and what you think about their prospect(s).

Some of these you may already be using – others you may have rejected, or are perhaps just now reconsidering.  Regardless, things change, people change, needs change – what works today can be passe tomorrow – and what was once seen as a game-changer may ultimately turn out to have feet of clay…
