Methodology and Full List of Products
A team of PC World editors surveyed the products we'd seen and learned about in 2005, nominated a few dozen of the most original, and then voted for the 25 winners that ultimately made our list. Our criteria for innovation included such elements as design, and the integration of technology with function. In all cases, we looked for products and services that did something first, did it much better than its predecessors, or reimagined what had been done before.
