Impressive!
Years ago, when looking at the hype, I predicted two things: a programming language with XML syntax, and an image file format in XML.
<for variable="i" initial="0" test="i < 10" end="i++" >
<body>
<statement>
<function>printf
<param>"Hello, world %s"</param>
<param>i</param>
</function>
</statement>
<body>
</for>

<x>0</x>
<y>0</y>
<red>255</red>
<green>0</green>
<blue>128</blue>

The first has come to pass!
