NEW YORK – Was it only a decade ago that a blackberry was a mere summer fruit? That green was, well, a color, and reality TV was that one show sandwiched between music videos on MTV?


There were, of course, huge political and social upheavals that roiled our world in the past decade. But there were also the gradual lifestyle changes that you don't always notice when they're happening — kind of like watching a child grow older.

Any thoughts on the list? I was a bit surprised at how far we've come in 10 years as far as technology and it's impact on our lives.
 
My 10 year old DD and I really enjoyed looking at the list. It was really cool, since it spanned her entire life so far. :)
I'm with you...it's AMAZING what a difference 10 years makes in the way of technology!
Thanks for sharing, DK!
