Products we love . . .
TiVo, by TiVo. It’s not often that owners refer to their pet technology as “life changing,” but the ability to watch 24 at 3 a.m. surely counts as one of the decade’s greatest humanitarian breakthroughs. The remote, the intuitive menus, the crisp instructions–everything about it can make even your parents feel smart.
iPod, by Apple. You don’t have to be a hipster to love iPod, which plays Henry Mancini as easily as it blasts Cannibal Corpse.
Skype’s Voice-over-Internet service. Cheap long distance? Without having to deal with the phone company? What’s not to love?
Google’s search engine. So good it’s a verb. The real question is, How did we find anything in the pre-Google era?
