Technology-wise,
plenty
happened in 2010. This CNN
story gives one reporter's take on the top tech stories of the year.
In brief, they include (in no particular order): Tablet computers
(iPad in particular); Facebook (which passed the 500 million user
mark); mobile check-in apps (Foursquare, Gowalla, others); hands-free
video gaming with Kinect; watching the Web on TV; escalation of the
smartphone wars (iPhone 4 and the emergence of Android competition);
apps galore and app-stores (for both Apple and Android); privacy
concerns (stirred by Facebook and mobile check-in sites, in
particular); and Net Neutrality. How does this match up with your
take? Are there others you would add to this list, or any you'd
leave off?
