Tech in 2010 - A Review

[Simon]

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.

I wonder how this will read in a year or two?

[Simon]

Indeed.  And I wonder how many phones I'll have then?

Not much of a change IMO. It's always been around. Just now it is "Cool" to actually have one.
