Messaging Forecast

Om Malik reported the Radicati Group 's email forecast.Here's the Radicati Group view between 2006 and 2010:

 Feature

 2006

2010

Active email boxes

1.4 billion

2.5 billion

Instant Messaging accounts

 0.94 billion

1.4 billion

Emails sent for corporate users

16.4 Mbytes/person/day

21.4 Mbytes/person/day

Percent SPAM

71%

79%

Wireless email users

14 million

228 million


I believe some of these forecast elements need some discussion. Only 500 million more IM accounts? What about those with multiples? I've got a AIM, Skype, Yahoo! Messenger and my enterprise IM account, or is that already factored into this list. What about mobile IM?

I find it hard to believe that there is SO MUCH SPAM out there. Surely, we'll get better tools to destroy SPAM before it even gets to my inbox?

Top Performers are 3x more likely to have developers creating custom mobile apps, specialized mobile device and application support staff, and critical enterprise apps that are optimized for mobile devices, that Poor Performers.
