It is an irony that most of the business relating to human interference are vanishing. Fringe business opportunities are going occupy for next generation as low level employment area. Whole system is using men and women as taxis of business movement. Online business delivery, marketing of properties, goods and services are employing youngsters as coolies and no business experience , trade skill nor manufacturing knowledge is infused. Imagine after 15 years, these population will be redundant and scrape Unless we build an economy and domestic products basing upon a concrete long term investment and utilisation of human resources, we will suffer a great depression and millions will be stranding on the street. TO BUILD A ROBUST ECONOMY THE GOVERNMENTS SHALL CHANGE WHOLE DIRECTION OF THE NATION BUILDING. POLICY OF EXPEDIENCY IS A DANGER TO FUTURE more  
Many offices will be closed and culture of work from home will take over office activities. Peon culture in offices already diminished except in Govt. offices. Vegetarianism will increase all over world as cattle feed will be costlier. more  
Yes, Changes are required to sustain, STD - PCO Changed for survival Some of those who had STD PCO Have started Cyber Cafes & Xerox or Typing Services side by side are now a days surviving. Photographers - Still huge demand with personalized services Now a days there is still huge demand for photography as per Indian ceremonial culture for Photographers now a days there are some E-Startups who are providing online such as 7Vachan.com are photographers facilitations but still photographers demand is consisting individual & easily accessible family photographers & everybody still needs some of photo's taken from his mobile or camera to be printed by professional photographers with any additional graphics & views. Travel Agents "Travel is one of human survival need" So, it is Always in demand but need to be organized with more & more personalized facilities to earn more & individually stable in market need such e-sites which can personalized provide on call service of required travel destination with easy & cheap & quality service. CALCULATOR are behind but not vanished because they are still in demand in corporate office & educational stationery Mobile-Pager's are not vanished those are converted into mobiles now a days. more  
There wont be any camera manufacturers like Nikon, Kodak etc. Even music storage devices like CD's , walkman will be outdated. Watch and Clock manufacturers will be out of business. Even roadside small mom and pop shops will perish and there could be only small and big retail shops, even for Kirana. I am still hopeful, looking at Indian culture nad habits of Indian consumers, the mom and pop shops may survive. Even the news paper in hard copy form may perish. We would also move to an era where the domestic help (kamwali Bai) will get organized and start demanding more and slowly nuclear families will reduce their dependence on them. The current living habits in cities will also reduce system of cooking at home and slowly domestic help will become luxury of rich and medium class will survive on their home. Today we still use lot of stitched clothes but slowly ready made clothes have started dominating so local tailors will lose out. All in all, the form of business is going to change a lot. more
