My first revolutionary IT hype was:
24% VRML for everything
24% ActiveX for everything
25% XML for everything
11% Semantic Web for everything
12% blockchains for everything
0% AI for everything

@monsieuricon tough one. VRML was going to be the revolution. But XML and Semantic Web, my oh my, these were the shit! And it was happening! XHTML2 was lovely compared to that bastard HTML5.
