The top 10 web searches for Google in 2015 were about music, movies, and terroristic acts (interesting but not helpful).  Where can we find emerging issues that Extension can address? We will explore data from google analytics, Google Trends, Google News Alerts, University News Services, Facebook Trends, Twitter Moments, BuzzFeed, and the 2016 Horizon Report.  Where can we find the pulse on hot topics?  Where have you looked?  We will also breifly discuss Makerspaces, Working out Loud, and the Internet of Things to try to understand better where these ideas are going.  Lastly, we will use the TCFF model from Texas to examine how to look for areas of overlap and create an action plan.
