I have this list in my head of scifi authors who have accurately predicted where technology was going. For example, Arthur C.Clarke accurately predicted that there would be satellites. Also, Jules Verne predicted that there would be submarines long before there were; and he did so by describing it as if he were actually in one. Does anyone else want to help me compile this list?

I am a matchmaker. Some matchmakers connect 2 people. I matchmake talent with opportunities. My blogs profile the very best and latest prizes, contests, competitions, awards, tournaments, and awards. The prizes enable talented individuals to obtain prestige, recognition, acclaim & $$$$$. The entries are always posted before the deadline so that entrants can still be eligible. Currently, I cover science, gaming, technology, coding, biotech, acting, dancing, comedy, writing, filmmaking, business, art competitions & much more. The books I read usually help me discover new opportunities, although sometimes I read just to enrich my base of knowledge. If this sounds interesting to you, please feel free to check out my blogs at: www.prizeisright.b-logging.com & www.prizeisright.blogspot.com. Also, I will soon launch: www.sportsprize.blogspot.com. If there is an opportunity that you would like to find out about, please email me at: prize@s-mail.com; or just comment on one of my blogs. I will work day and night to find out about opportunities in the areas of your talent.
