A Google employee noticed that Google searches related to cold symptoms were a sign of future or existing epidemics. He noticed that if one were to overlay these searches onto a map, it would show the current flu season two weeks before the press or medical world reported it. In this case, data visualization predicted actual news data two weeks before the news could record it. In a few years, companies will use maps as strategic guides to direct their Internet marketing strategies at other websites.
In the same way that product developers will map out holes in the maps where products do not yet exist, data visualization can be employed to determine opportunity. Once companies become digital A map that shows where one company has taken all of the territory, social capital, the mental geography - the mental property. The maps will be used to negotiate with others over the sale of some of our minds.
Companies will use Markoff chains and Phylogenetic Inference to find the next best products and develop them. Just as search is governed by Markoff Chains, so will genetics ... genetics and search will merge in product development sector, to create something new.
