This list is what I saw as being some of the biggest trends/winners during 2006. They are not listed in any order of importance, just in order that I thought of. Some of these like the unboxing craze just started to pick up towards the end of 2006 and will continue to be much bigger (saw an actual news story on this on CNN “tv”).
