The top event of the noughties...the dotcom dotbomb and the prick that burst the bubble
AOL/Time Warner defined the decade and now that it's been undone maybe we will have a decade of growth rather than recovery...
I like the term the Brits use to describe the decade of the 2000s - 'The Noughties.' Since we are in the final hours of the Noughties, it's good to look back at some of the most important events.
John McCrea, from Plaxo, writes about his top ten events of this decade.
These are:
- The Dot Com Bubble Collapse.
- Broadband and Wi-Fi.
- Google IPO.
- Blogging.
- YouTube.
- Facebook.
- Twitter.
- Ereaders (Kindle, nook, and more to come).
- Apple, iPod, and iPhone.
- The Social Web.
