In this final episode of the year, we take a look back at the significant trends and events that shaped 2014, and then offer a peek at our collective predictions and hopes for the practice of software development in 2015.

In addition we explore what surprised us the most (both positively and negatively) about Microsoft and Apple in 2014.

We also take a look back at the predictions we all made for 2014 in our inaugural episode to see how we did.  Spoiler alert: we didn’t actually do all that bad!
