Many of you have asked me to do a strip on the most famous failed or bad technology of all time. That was easy to research but hard to choose a winner.
Obviously early contenders were LaLa Music Service, 3DTV, Motorola Xoom, Nokia N-Gage, UMPC's, HD-DVD's
We had to choose between those that won and then failed and those that were just bad.
MySpace, Betamax, DRM on PC games, Netscape, Sega Dreamcast all won big before they lost.
In the end we asked 25 people to choose between all the candidates and amazingly it was unanimous.
