PC World’s Top 100 products? Ummm, I don’t think so.

Posted by: Randy Holloway on: May 31, 2006

PC World has posted a list of the "100 best products of the year" which includes various technologies including hardware, software, and other services. The list is junk- plain and simple. Here are a few examples:

  • The Xbox 360 is #89 on the list. Quick- can you think of 88 products that are more interesting than the Xbox 360? No? How about 25? Maybe 10? I challenge anyone to come up with a compelling list of products that are more interesting, exciting, and innovative than Xbox. There are a few on that list that are worthy, but certainly not 88.
  • YouTube.com is listed in the top 10. Why not Buzznet? Why not Google Video? Color me unimpressed with this selection.
  • Engadget is #13. C'mon people. I like Engadget too but it is no more a product than my blog is. And since I didn't make the list, I'm complaining.

In short, the list stinks. PC World needs to go back to the drawing board on this one and come up with a real list.
