InfoQ's research widget has been deprecated and is no longer available.

With 2012 coming to an end and everybody talking about what lies ahead in 2013, InfoQ has conducted a quick poll amongst its editors about the trends that have a good potential to get significant traction or even dominated the software development community during the next year. These trends include everything from specific programming languages, platforms, development methodologies, and more.

  • why require social linking?

    I was going to fill out the survey, but having to link to social network to me is a big turn off.

    Shouldn't hype be on the right and adopt on the left?

    Thanks for the heads-up Ivo, there was a temporary glitch.

    The voting authentication links all seem to fail now anyway, resulting in an error message "Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to www.decidify.com:8080"

  • No more surveys for me

    I did all my dragging and clicked submit only to be greeted by login options of which I don't have any. I am registered on InfoQ for goodness sake. Why do I need to login with something else?

    Please specify this up-front at the very least so that people don't waste their time.

    I agree with other posters. A big turn off having to log in with Google/FB... Registered with InfoQ should be enough.

    This is because the survey has been outsourced to decidify which certainly only accepts social network logins.

    Not everyone is on a social network. IMHO they do nothing but waste time and are the net's equivalent of TV. Instead of idle channel surfing, you click-surf--wasting your time. And why didn't infoq create a webservice so decidify could authenticate it's users?

    Exactly my experience. Not much point in using an external service if they can't do the job!

  • Whole decidify site seems to be down at the moment?

    I can't even get to the main decidify.com website at the moment - whole thing down?

    I was annoyed to go through the process of answering, only to find I couldn't submit my answer without social linking. I'm already logged in.
    Here's a new entry for you "seamless authentication apis using simple tokens"

    I totally agree that this was a major turnoff and completly unnessesary. This is unfortunatly a trend picking up speed alot lately.

    +1 I love InfoQ... but I am already authenticated against InfoQ, and I try to manage my social network connections... so no vote from me today. :-/

    That is exactly what I've done. Why give my social data for a simple survey. Shame on you Infoq.
