Technological awards
The Times does end of year ‘awards’ about technology-related things that it believes has bought in changes this year, including:
- timeshifting music - podcasting
- Artic Monkeys - the band that got to No 1 through downloads and word of mouth
- timeshifting TV, making TV schedulers redundant
- ‘citizen jounalism’ though ubiquitous cameraphones
- Mark Russinovich, for ‘idling through his computer’s nether regions’ and finding Sony’s rootkit
- RSS for improvong web delivery
Blogs don’t get an award, not for a lack of revolution but because they are as core to a number of other things, such as providing a tool to support free speech in many countries
