11 Videos That Helped Shape 2011
We won't be so bold as to say these videos defined 2011. They just don't. The 1,300-foot iPad plunge from a plane is awesome—but not year-defining. The interactive computer screen on a cold cloud? Sweet. But not the stuff that fills history books.
Yet, in a way, each of these videos do capture a small segment of the 2011 zeitgeist. This is what we did, what we laughed at, what got us all riled up, and what inspired a few people to launch new business endeavors. Take a jaunt down memory lane—and remember just one more time yet another quirky, fun-filled, poignant year.
