Kayye’s Krystal Ball is a fun read (and for me, edit) every year. I’ve learned a lot from Gary, and there is always something new to glean from this column he writes each year. Some important predictions to note: E Ink’s color ePaper will transform the digital signage industry, all the companies making video bars (there are a ton of them) will survive 2024, USB cameras will work their way into more than just meeting rooms.

Read the full Kayye’s Krystal Ball article here. And, as always, Gary wants to hear what you think. You can email him your thoughts here.

Shure’s support for the FCC wireless mic order was an interesting piece of news from the past week that caught my eye. This order “expands opportunities” for wireless microphone users. Why does unlicensed WMAS with higher power do this? Read more here.
