Title: Tech in 2010 - A Review
Post by: Simon on December 29, 2010, 23:49
Was there ever a year in which technology changed so rapidly?

No, I know this was not a 1969 moon landing kind of year, or a 2008, when the Large Hadron Collider was switched on. I'm talking about personal technology, and the way we relate to it - for 2010 was the year we got all touchy and feely with our computing devices.

Looking back on a year in which new gadgets seem to have arrived every week, I'm going to focus on three types of device - and three big technology brands, Google, Apple, and Microsoft, which have once again proved that giant companies can still innovate.

Well, you've made a significant contribution to the phones, now for the tablets and consoles. ;D

Why can't there just be one "Stay Alive" pill?  A cynic might think all we're doing is keeping the pharmaceutical companies in business!  ;)
