Ten threat predictions for 2008 by Richard Stiennon from ZDNet

Richard Stiennon from ZDNet gave us a list of 10 predictions - a list of possible web threats in 2008:

1) Facebook widgets (misuse of Facebook applications)
2) Google's OpenSocial (new social networking site)
3) Salesforce.com (data loss)
4) China (their attacks on western governments and institutions)
5) Ex-Soviet states (weapons of cyber-extortionists)
6) Cyber crime (getting up close and personal)
7) Disruption of financial markets (by phishing attacks)
8) Storm Trojan
9) Use of DDos (by terrorist organizations)
10) Game console (network games can bring network attacks)

Via ZDNet.

We definitely need to be aware of possible threats.

But we are more interested in positive aspects of new technologies and therefore ask:

What are 10 web opportunities in 2008?

P.S.: Some points from Richards's list can definitely appear on opportunity list (as we would claim the positive/opportunity aspect of the point and not the negative/threat aspect). E.g.: Facebook.
