Thanks for doing this Tom, I'm a long time subscriber to The Economist and always flick straight to the technology section.

My question: Are there any emerging technologies that you feel are being over-hyped by developers which you just don't see taking off? Personally I see that The Economist regularly talks about 3D printing yet (as far as I know) we aren't really seeing anything like a "new industrial revolution" as the Economist predicted would happen.

Everyone is talking about prince of persia, i just wanted to say thank you for making the last express. Twelve year old me was hooked on that game, I learned much about history that I didn't hear about in school.

Are there any articles which you've written or been involved with that have had unexpected or major outcomes? Are you aware of any business (or government) changing their policies as a result of one of your articles?
