CES 2022: The most talked-about trends of the tech convention

Despite Omicron rearing its ugly head, the kingpin of tech trade shows, CES, returned this year to give us a glimpse of what will set the world of technology on fire in 2022.  From TVs that could fit the world’s tallest man lengthways and autonomous tractor technology to temperature-controlled beds and a creepy-looking robot – this year’s pared-back event still had much to offer attendees.

The media landscape: A reflection on 2021 and looking ahead to 2022

At the start of 2021 we reflected on the rollercoaster that was 2020 and looked ahead to 2021’s trends and media landscape. One more lockdown, a few variants and a “tidal wave of Omicron coming” (as Boris eloquently put it) and this year may have been almost as insane as the last.

Our social (media) lives; 2020 edition

2020 has affected us all in various ways… We’re not sure any of us pictured ourselves here back in January but the one constant enhancing, and sometimes hindering, our lives massively is social media. Back in August it was reported that UK adults were spending more than 40 per cent of their waking day on their devices – a whopping 45 hours per week. From perfecting *that Blinding Lights dance* on TikTok to trying to volley a teabag into a mug on Instagram Reels, the social networks have certainly given us a helping hand in reaching this statistic. Instagram even removed its Likes counter this year so that we wouldn’t feel so conscious when posting!

So, what are the biggest social media trends to come out of 2020?
