'The post Predictions 2014: A Difficult Year To See appeared first on John Battelle's Search Blog. This post marks the 10th edition of my annual predictions – it’s quite possibly the only thing I’ve consistently done for a decade in my life (besides this site, of course, which is going into its 12th year). But gazing into 2014 has been the hardest of the bunch – and not because the industry is getting so complicated.

From the very beginning, you've been able to add a column to an existing DB2 for z/OS table by way of the SQL statement ALTER TABLE with the ADD COLUMN option. In fact, relative ease of logical database design modification had a lot to do with DB2 becoming a very widely used DBMS. Of course, there are times when what you want to do is remove a column from an existing table.

Today comes the news that Google is buying Nest , a move that, upon reflection, should have been obvious (the price tag of more than $3 billion, not so obvious!). If the company is truly executing its mission of helping us organize the world’s information and make it available, it makes sense to have a major play in the Internet of Things, in particular, those things that consumers view as extremely valuable.
