Library Predict-o-matic 3000

If you haven't seen the Library Predict-o-matic 3000 presented by Dave Pattern (of self-plagiarism is style blog fame), please go there now and get your F5 key ready. Each refresh provides a new library prediction for 2007.

Just to get you started, here are a few of my favorites:

Innovative will release a new shelving robot named Virtula. It can vaporize patrons who ignore the "no cell phone" posters.

ExLibris will release a new automated shelving trolley named Horicorn. Unfortunately, it will ultimately be banned in 31 US States.

SirsiDynix will unveil a new virtual version of Stephen Abram named Barizon. It will be able to state up to 18 interesting facts per minute.

It's a crackup!
