The Crunchies Award

The ballot boxes stuffed emptied and votes are counted; the winners of the 2012 Crunchies for best…well, just about anything that you could categorize on the Net are….  Some winners were gimme’s like DropBox but some left us scratching our heads in disbelief, e.g. Nest beat iPad2 for Best Devices.  Really?!  Really?!

iPhone 4S

Maybe next year we should let whoever is running Apple deliver the State of the Union Address because their state is certainly solvent and has more cash than the good old US of A! During the 4th quarter of 2011 alone The Boys from Cupertino hustled 37+ million iPhones following the introduction of the iPhone 4S and Apple also said it sold nearly 15.5 million iPads during the same time, up 111% from the same time last  year.

When Timeline first appeared on Facebook it created a big backlash.  Looks like none of that matters to Mark Z and his minions because we are all going to get to like it, like it or not.  By early February we will all look the same (in terms of general layout) on FB.  Sure you can individualistic, as long as it’s their way.
