I think the term "hypermedia" will catch on just like REST did. People will begin to slap on the hypermedia label to their APIs whether or not they are true hypermedia APIs. Developing hypermedia APIs will be the new craze until some other revolutionary terminology is introduced to describe yet another way to correctly develop APIs.

Yes, this is how the world works. Some people push ideas forward. Others jump on for the ride. I fail to see a problem with this though. It's the job of those pushing the ideas forward to communicate effectively about what they are doing so that we can determine which followers are doing the right thing.
