The Buzzwords of 2008
Happy New Year everybody!
I decided to begin 2009 with a humorous post about the buzzwords of 2008 according to The New York Times. The technology sector is normally busting with new buzzwords, so it is interesting to see what buzzwords have main it mainstream!
I think that my favourite buzzword is photobombing, and it means
Intentionally inserting oneself as an unwelcome subject in the background of someone else’s photograph.
Perhaps the most ridicules buzzword is longphoto, which means
A video of 90 seconds or less. Used by the photo-sharing Web site Flickr, which began permitting videos this year.
I do not understand what was wrong with short video!
It is interesting that most of the buzzwords are related to either the US election or the economy.
The full article with all of the buzzwords is The Buzzwords of 2008.
