For This Week in Tech’s final episode of the decade, Leo brings in both Kevin Rose and Robert Scoble to talk about the big tech trends that colored the last ten years. The format is particularly interesting because Leo solicited ideas from former guests of the show, introducing a wide variety of topics for discussion.
Kim Landwehr called in to bring up the ever essential presence of Apple in both the portable music player market (the iPod) and the mobile market (the iPhone), which the crew agrees introduced a complete paradigm shift in how we consume information. Robert Llewellyn chimes in with another media giant, YouTube, which brought video publishing to the people.
Swinging around to the more obscure, some other familiar voices bring up topics including the rising relevance of DSLR’s in producing high quality video, the Hadron Collider, Y2K, Net Neutrality, and many more.
Covered news and topics: YouTube, Google, portability of tech, DSLRs, RSS, Hadron Collider, HD-DVD, iPod, iPhone, Apple, Solid State Hard Drives, Biotechnology, Webvan/Peapod, Moore’s Law, Net Neutrality, Digital Photography, Y2K, high definition, Mike Arrington, Mars Rover
We end the year, and decade, with a look at the most important stories of the 2000s.
