Top 10 Technology News Stories

by Michael George September 19, 2020
written by Michael George September 19, 2020

2013 is nearing its end. It is about the time when articles about holiday gifts will begin to dwindle and the year in review articles will pick up. And everyone’s favorite year in review articles is usually the top 10 lists. What better for me to write about than the top 10 technology news stories of 2013.

Top 10 Technology News Stories 2013
2013 News stories 3D Printing
Sense Scanner

1. 3D Scanners and Printers

2013 is the first year that 3D printing is affordable enough for consumers. With the Sense 3D Scanner at only $399, you have a choice of buying the printer at $1,299 or just uploading your scans to Cubify and paying per object. 2013 is also the first year that we are seeing 3D printing popping up in the media. It played a major role in episodes of Bones, Grey’s Anatomy, and The Big Bang Theory this past year.

2. Apple

Top 10 Technology News Stories 2013

The release of the new mobile operating system, iOS 7, was the first major successful upgrade since the death of Steve Jobs. The 2012 upgrade to iOS 6 was not as big of a change and it had many problems (remember the map fiasco). The beautiful new iPad Air and iPad Mini with Retina Display are great new products also.

3. Blackberry

No matter what Blackberry has done to try to stay relevant, it looks like the end is near. They will make a good study for business schools. Eventually, Blackberries will go back to just being fruit.

4. Crowdfunding

Crowdfunding isn’t new. However, the use of online websites to crowdfund is growing faster than ever, with Kickstarter and Indiegogo being the top two. Why would you want to invest in the dream of a stranger? In addition to the whole feeling good thing, you are not donating, you are investing. Depending on the amount of your investment, you get something back. Often it is the completed project. And the reason that I prefer Kickstarter to Indiegogo is that with Kickstarter you only pay if they reach their goal.

Top 10 Technology News Stories 2013

The big news in Crowdfunding in 2013 is that it is now being used to fund indie movie projects. Rob Thomas, the creator of Veronica Mars, the CW series starring Kristen Bell, that ran from 2004-2007, used Kickstarter to obtain the funds to finance a movie version of Veronica Mars. The TV show had low ratings but very loyal fans. They reached their goal in no time. My son is a big fan so I pledged a small amount and got a great t-shirt (see above) from it.

5. Hashtag and Selfie – Social Media Terms Gone Mainstream

Top 10 Technology News Stories 2013

Before 2013, if you didn’t use Twitter, you probably did not know what hashtag meant. Now, you can’t avoid it. If you watch TV, the use of hashtags at the bottom of the screen is everywhere. People talk using hashtags on talk shows or on comedies all the time. Hashtags are now used on all social networks, not only Twitter. So the many people on Facebook that are not big social network users have gotten used to seeing hashtags. REDGUARD SKYRIM

Selfies, pictures you take of yourself, and then post on social media, have skyrocketed this year. Or maybe just the term Selfies. I’m not sure. But probably because of the number of celebrities posting them, this word has now gone mainstream.

6. Mobile Fitness Devices

Top 10 Technology News Stories 2013
Misfit Shine activity tracker

Until recently there weren’t many choices, it was mostly the Fitbit. Now, the Fitbit alone has many models to choose from and you have the Nike FuelBand, the Misfit Shine, the Jawbone Up, the Basis Band, and many more all to track your activity. In 2013, all you need is a smartphone and you have a very varied choice of devices in which you can track your fitness and more.

7. Next-Gen Gaming Consoles

It had been a few years since Sony and Microsoft had upgraded the PlayStation and Xbox consoles. These are the consoles the hardcore gamers use and are least likely to abandon consoles for mobile games. After the announcements for the PS4 and Xbox One in June, it looked as though the Sony PS4 was the clear winner. However, now that they are finally both on the market, the jury is still out.

8. Smart Watches

Top 10 Technology News Stories 2013
Pebble SmartWatch

Although there aren’t enough good smartwatches for them to be considered mainstream yet, this is the first year that there are actually very good smartwatches worth buying. While the Pebble SmartWatch for both iPhone and Android is at the forefront, you should also check out the Sony Smartwatch 2 SW2 for Android Phones or if you have a Samsung Galaxy 3 or 4 phones, check out the Samsung Galaxy Gear.

9. Snapchat

Snapchat is a mobile app that allows you to send pictures or messages that self destruct within 10 seconds. The reason it has been in the news and has caused much controversy this year is that users, many of which are young teens, feel that it is safe to send risque photos because they will only last a few seconds. However many users have found that it is possible to save these photos or messages before they disappear. The whole reason for Snapchat doesn’t work. We have to teach our kids and learn ourselves, that there is no such thing as privacy on social media. Never put anything out there that you would not mind anyone in the world seeing.

10. Television Viewing

Everything about how, when, and where we view TV is changing. This has been changing for a while now but the HOW has really come into its own in 2013.
