Since I already shared what tech I enjoyed using the most in 2010, I thought I would also share what I think the best new tech was in 2010. (Heah, better late than never, right?) Commenters: What did I miss?
- Amazon Kindle 3 – Amazon did better than designing a better mousetrap. They designed a better book.
- Apple iPad – Your grandmother never even knew a tablet computer existed. Now, she wants one (and so do your kids).
- Netflix streaming – a beautiful new way to waste time, now with movies from Paramount, Lionsgate and MGM (as of 2010)
- Nexus S – Pure Googley goodness.
- Apple MacBook Air – Reborn as a netbook (despite Apple’s disclaimer), the Air is rarefied and heavenly.
- Android Voice to Text | Dragon Dictation – Keyboard? I don’t need no stinkin’ keyboard.
- Samsung Galaxy Tab – Android’s flag planted in the tablet space
- Angry Birds – Happy gamers
- Microsoft Kinect – not only is big brother watching you, he wants to play
- Windows Phone 7 – Raising the question of whether Microsoft actually can make a comeback as a dominant smartphone OS
