There are always a large amount of websites on the market that utilize the word "future" within their domain name, but are they really futurist type websites? It is recommended often by print publishers and editors that the phrase "future" is a great word to used in titles, because it grabs people's attention. But, when people utilize the word future and then don't give predictions or future accounts, then are they really deceiving the viewer and web-surfer. I think they are.
Recently, an editor of a future of things type website asked me to create a column, but in reviewing the web site I came across it to be underwhelming on the futuristic side, and more heavy to the scientific news arena. Indeed, if the magazine is seriously interested in "The Future" then why are the articles about new scientific innovations in the current period or happening today? - asked myself.

It appears like they are seriously interested in scientific discovery that's already happened, not what'll be in the future. That is just boring, more science news, regurgitation, typical human tactic of re-packaging information. I believe they are able to do better, but are holding themselves back, afraid to create people think, worried that you will get too far from your mainstream, quote "core" number of viewers, which I think they don't even understand.
Needless to say, being an entrepreneur, I know exactly why they get it done this way. It is because they would like to make money and thus sink to a lesser degree of readership, while still pretending to speak about the future of stuff. Once the editor wished to defend such comments, the indication was that your website was mostly about scientific news.
Yes, I realize that your website is mostly a news site and I ask what does that have related to the future of stuff? Shouldn't the web site be called NSIN.com or something like this; for New Science Innovation News? If your website is about Science News and is an accumulation everyone else's news, then it is a copy site of a style that's already used and not unique. Thus, the content is therefore the same, so even though the articles are written more clearly and easier to know, that is nice, still what is the value to a "science news junky" as there are not many articles on the webpage compared making use of their competition?
Should they called themselves a news site, then you could have "futurist type columnists" anyway, who might project these scientific news items into the long run or they may keep carefully the "Future Stuff" motif and promote the futurist columnists.
This should be a training to any or all "Futuristic" type websites as a case study. Invest the the long run thinkers to your website and have nothing to show them, they'll leave. If you are using trickery to obtain regular readers there, you're doing a severe disservice to the future of mankind, by promoting present inventions while the be all end all. Either way, it's unethical to make use of this tactic on future of things type websites.
