There has been many shifts in culture, some may remember some more than others.
For you personally which one is the biggest ?
I will give you a few of mine.
- September 2001 -
the whole damn game changed during that month, when the y2k era ended in the weeks leading up to 9/11
it literally set the template for the rest of the 2000s.
- November 2008-
Economy was officially toast at the time, Electropop was pretty much a new and upcoming standard, seeing all those stores gone and Toonami
being toast was hard to see.

Well what counts as a shift? I think there was a shift sometime in 2013 that I recall.

The end of 1980 around the time of John Lennon's death. Music went downhill and has remained so ever since.

I remember the shift that happened around 2010-2012. Smartphones were exploding in popularity, and apps like Instagram and Snapchat became huge. Terms like selfie and hashtag became heavily used. Mobile gaming became huge with Angry Birds and Clash of Clans. Skeuomorphic design was dying in favor of flat design. EDM was becoming huge, like David Guetta and Skrillex. I remember 2011 was the year the shift really got big, cause before that, it was largely pre-smartphone era with iPhones more as an accessory rather than a necessity. But around 2011, the narrative changed completely.
I'm sure there was a similar shift that happened in the late 70s/early 80s with computers (probably around 1979 is when the shift happened).

1988-1989 1992-1993 1999 2005 2008-2009 2012-2014 1999 really just finished off the shift that was already happening in 1997 such as, boom of Bubblegum Pop, Death of Gangsta Rap, Glam Rap taking over (such as Puff Daddy and Master P), more Neon/conservative fashion (though, not fully taken over yet until mid 1999), TV changing (think South Park, The Jerry Springer Show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, King of the Hill, Attitude era WWF and The Simpsons downfall starts...), start of the Dot-Com boom and so on. 1999 (specifically mid 1999 to early 2000), just felt like the peak of an era. Late 1997 - early 1999 still carried over a lot of core 90s stuff in comparison.

Late 1997 - early 1999 still carried over a lot of core 90s stuff in comparison. The second half of 1998 felt like a different or second phase or period however you see it or call it, compared to mid to late 1997 to mid 1998 with enough things cementing a change. 1999 was the peak of the second phase that started in 1998 and late 1999 also had significant incoming 2000s vibes. 1999 as a whole feels quite different that than the world of spring or autumn 1997 to spring/summer 1998 regardless of overlaps, similarities and continuations from 1997 to Jan to Summer 99

It was more Mid/Late 1997 - mid 1998 that felt like it's own sub-era..
