2001: The Year of Overthinking

The year 2001: A time when the world was still reeling from the Y2K bug, but also a time of great innovation and, of course, epic failures.

Notable Failures:

• Enron Scandal - When accounting wasn't just a number-crunching game
• Amazon One - The first attempt at online retail that wasn't just a bunch of monkeys in a warehouse
• WorldCom - When the world thought it was a dot-com company, but really it was just a dot-gone

And let's not forget the real reason 2001 is famous for: Space Odyssey, the movie where everything that could go wrong, did.
