BlackBerry. MySpace. Flash. Mainframes. Every dominant technology feels permanent--until it isn't.
BlackBerry's co-CEO laughed at the iPhone. IBM dismissed personal computers as toys. Flash was the internet--until Steve Jobs wrote an open letter and it was gone within a decade. Every one of them saw the threat coming. None of them could adapt.
The Technology Collapse Pattern examines the most dramatic technology collapses of the past sixty years--from mainframes to crypto--to uncover the structural dynamics that make dominant technologies fragile, and the compounding failure modes that turn market leaders into cautionary tales.
You'll discover:
- Why every "permanent" technology is temporary--and the structural dynamics that guarantee it
- How BlackBerry went from market domination to irrelevance in under five years
- Why Kodak's engineers built a digital camera in 1975--and management buried it to protect film revenue
- How Flash went from powering the internet to extinction in a single decade
- Why social platforms like MySpace and Vine can't be "fixed" once the vibe shifts
- The eight warning signs that a technology is dying--from developer exodus to conference energy collapse
- A practical transition playbook for engineers, companies, and investors
- What's showing collapse pattern signs right now
Technologies examined: Mainframes, BlackBerry, Palm, Kodak's film ecosystem, Flash, Java Applets, ActiveX, Silverlight, MySpace, Vine, Google+, dot-com era platforms, crypto infrastructure, and legacy enterprise systems.
Written by a practicing enterprise architect with over fifteen years of experience building and migrating systems across technology transitions. This isn't journalism about tech--it's insider analysis from someone who has lived through these collapses firsthand.
Includes: A timeline of major technology collapses, a technology health assessment framework, a glossary of terms, and a curated further reading list.
