2006 innovations offered a year of incredible surprises. Who would have thought that the sale of YouTube to Google would send it through the roof? Another of 2006 innovations saw Sun Microsystems come to life with the help of Jonathan Schwartz. The housing industry also saw collaboration between Martha Stewart and KB Homes. The 2006 innovations weren’t all good however, as witnessed by Sony’s laptop battery problems.
Congratulations to Honda for putting an airbag on the 2006 Gold Wing motorcycle. 2006 innovations saw the first cancer vaccine, a watch specifically for lefties and Zune battling for supremacy over iPod. For the extremely well to do the 2006 innovations that caught their eye was the Eclipse 500, a “very light” private jet. It is set to herald a new generation of aircraft.
