This morning in Tech Trends, we're taking a look at this list from the Huffington Post declaring what, in the world of technology, became obsolete this decade.
Dial up internet, newspaper classifieds, and yellow pages may be no surprise... but do phone calls belong on the list?
Let us know your thoughs on what's gone "obsolete." As we end the decade, it's a good chance to take stock of how quickly technology has changed - and changed our lives.
CNN has learned that the U.S. and Yemen are looking at targets in Yemen for a potential retaliatory strike. This is in response to Friday’s failed bombing of a Northwest Airlines flight. (Read the full story here).
What do you think of this plan? What do you think the U.S. response should be?

Friday’s Northwest Airlines incident has people talking about a different type of airport x-ray called a full body scan. In addition to detecting regular weapons, this technology can spot liquid explosives, gels, and PETN (which the suspect in the Christmas-day incident allegedly used). The down-side of the technology: it gives airport screeners - but not other passengers–a very clear look at your body. Passengers can cover their private parts with a metal plate so that the operator can’t see, but the machine will still record the detail.
Privacy advocates call the full body scan a “virtual strip search”. Security advocates call it a life-saving measure.
What do you think?

You take off your shoes to go through security, pour your liquids into tiny containers, make complicated arrangements to meet your ride since they can’t meet you at the gate or sit in the car in front of the airport. After Friday’s incident, security measures could get even tougher.
Our question: how safe do you feel when you fly these days?

Gift returns – as much a part of the holidays now as gift buying. Stores are stricter this year than ever. Lose a receipt, open the cellophane, clip off a tag and you may be out of luck.
