The only phone with the loop, she gets priority updates from the people and things she cares about.

Welcome to watch mojo and today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 failed technologies of the two thousand's Yo Yo Ma is playing and This is great for this list.

Will be looking at emerging technologies and products that crashed and burned in the early 21st century.

Do you wish any of these had succeeded?

Tell us in the comments number 10 3 D television, we're excited that we have an opportunity to be the company that truly gets three D.

Right?

There was a time when three D entertainment was restricted to cheesy special effects augmented by red and blue paper glasses as stereoscopic technology emerged a far better three D movie experience also arrived with that came attempt to bring that experience into the home.

Unfortunately, it was a perfect storm for a massive fail.

It started with a lack of cohesion amongst tv manufacturers.

When it came to home based technology Smart is turning two D to three D glasses were not always compatible with every three D tv and when they did work, it was not at all the same as being in a theater From there.

The sheer cost of it all pushed three d television off the proverbial cliff.

Number nine, niche social networks.

The whole point of today's social media is that they appeal to a broad audience.

What a user consumes from a given platform varies but social media networks thrive on catering to just about every interest, cool photos and post a comment.

The two thousands gave birth to some unique social networks that try to go niche instead, such as ping daily booth friend feed and many others.

I can make a comment or just let someone know that I liked what they shared.

As unique as they may have been.

The same ideals that birthed them were also their undoing.

While already dealing with a smaller user base.

They simply couldn't compete with those who would become the big fish.

Someone actually asked me where I got it.

So I sent her a link number eight.

Windows Me Microsoft, Windows 95 may have changed desktop computing forever, but it was Windows 98 that really impressed their user base.

A massive upgrade for hardware compatibility.

It was Microsoft's first real Os to embrace the internet.

So it's no surprise they wanted its successor to be even more impressive.

Unfortunately, Windows Me or Millennium Edition was a colossal failure that was swiftly replaced by Windows XP a year later in 2000 and one XP lasted for many years as the replacement for Windows 98.

But it seemed the company hadn't learned from its mistakes because the entire cycle was repeated when the maligned Windows vista was released, number seven rapid blood tests.

Every person should have the ability to get that type of test organ transplants, antibiotics and even vaccinations have shown how much medical technology has evolved over the years.

Each time a new breakthrough is made, it opens up the door to countless new possibilities with so many diagnoses dependent on accurate blood readings.

There were attempts to try and hasten the testing process.

Being able to get accurate results much faster would have pushed diagnostic technology into a new generation.

Alas, it was not meant to be.

The results need to be precise and accurate and that's where the story of Theranos starts to crumble.

The biggest player in this space.

Theranos went out of business when they couldn't deliver on what they promised.

This later resulted in a highly public trial and conviction of their Ceo Elizabeth Holmes.

The disgraced Theranos founder and Ceo found guilty on four of 11 counts in her landmark Silicon Valley fraud case number six, various optical disc formats in the 19 nineties C.

D.

S replaced tape cassettes, but piracy concerns led to the development of a new kind of optical disc called dataplay released to consumers in 2000 and two, it featured a digital rights management system that won its support from the recorded music industry.

However, they didn't catch on and fizzled out.

A similar story befell HD Dvds in the late nineties, DvDS began replacing VHS for movies and television.

HD Dvds were developed by Toshiba to be the next big thing.

Welcome to HD DVD instead of blu ray came out on top and HD Dvds were soon forgotten in more recent years, streaming services have largely replaced C.

D.

S.

Anyway, lay something.

Number five miniature Netbooks.

Remember netbooks?

These were essentially scaled down smaller versions of a laptop.

In the two thousands, several companies experimented with the idea of ultra mobile pcs.

You press it.

Once the product comes on, you press it again, the product goes off.

Remember this was before smartphones?

So many organizations were trying to find a way to make computing more mobile devices like the Palm folio, Sony, Vaio's UX and even Samsung Q one tries to claim this space in the market.

It's battery life though is a rather pitiful 2.5 hours.

Their attempts were undermined the moment the ipad hit the world, both apple and android devices would supersede the mini Pc, making it a doomed technology.

There goes my number four smart glasses.

Even before google glass came and went.

Other attempts were made to give us high tech glasses, the user can have 100% range of view while watching a 3.8 inch screen located 50 centimeters ahead.

How about a wearable DVD player or maybe you'd like a pair of shades that help you resemble a borg from star trek.

Very close proximity.

So it's the same as looking at a monitor on your desktop and whether it was trying to put a computer on your face or simply to provide a means of consuming media attempts at developing smart glasses have failed to catch on clunky designs, terrible interfaces and the worst kind of fashion fails have doomed this trend at least so far on a photo to share it and choose one of your friends.

Number three SEg when the Segway was introduced in 2000 and one, some thought it would usher in a new era of personal transportation technology.

Thanks for joining us for this webinar to launch our new product, the Segway pt sc, We'd replaced the horse and buggy with cars a century ago and now it was time for another revolution.

Dean Kamen's concept did get people interested in new ways of moving, but the technology of the time never took off.

Instead, we found companies like Segway failing to appeal to the mass market and barely surviving in niche corners.

It however, wasn't a complete failure.

The interest in personal transporters did eventually inspire the likes of e scooters and one wheels.

Number two, the original social media networks.

Now, anyone remember Bebo, it was a social networking site that became big or biggish shortly before facebook then took the world by storm.

Social media is now deeply intertwined with our lives, But it wasn't always so the 2000s saw the Internet become more and more of a mainstay in people's lives now able to connect across the globe easily, many attempts were made to engage users in online communities.

This gave birth to the likes of Myspace Friendster and similar websites all trying to do the same thing.

They did manage to achieve some success but ultimately it was facebook that took over making its forerunners obsolete.

Others have tried to compete but few have stood the test of time.

Number one app specific hardware.

The iphone didn't come out until 2006 and apps weren't really a thing until 2000 and eight that meant that applications like twitter or other online services were typically only available from a computer that didn't however stop some companies from trying to launch apps, specific hardware devices ever heard of a twitter peak or how about Microsoft kin Kendra knew about it right away.

Both were attempts to make mobile devices for specific apps or certain types of apps only this type of hardware was essentially dead on arrival as the birth of the smartphone supplanted everything that had come before it.

One of the biggest downsides to the twitter peak is that you can't see the full 140 character method.
