The New Year often brings outstanding compilations recapping the past year and providing predictions for the future year. Greg Jarboe has started a series for Search Engine Watch's SearchDay that he has called "The 12 Days of Search Day." For anyone not familiar, there is a song called the "12 Days of Christmas" (Lyrics).

Greg's first post in the series about 2007 trends to watch covered the following:

In the first week of New Year’s, my SearchDay gave to me:
12 speakers speaking,
11 bloggers blogging,
10 scribblers scribbling,
Nine Diggers Digging…

He follows up with a second installment which describes the next gifts:

Eight firms a-buying,
Seven forums buzzing,
Six engines searching,
Five Google things...

Fun stuff, and a good synopsis of things to keep an eye on or add to your favorites, so far.
