1. Amazon Web Services continue to gain in popularity.

2. Google, Yahoo, etc will all continue to ignore the developers using AWS services and focus on end-user applications.

3. But.. familiarity with AWS services, apis and procedures will become the new skill headhunters will be seeking. Amazon will offer an "AWS" Certification.

4. Microsoft will announce (but not deliver) competitive services to AWS.

5. Meanwhile, we'll see plenty of GNU/OSS projects interoperate and compete with AWS as well.
