I agree with the whole list.
Most transitional:
2001
2003
2004
2007
2008
Least transitional:
2000
2002
2005
2006
2009
Basically every 2000s year was more or less transitional. The starter year of the decade shouldn't really count tho.

I agree with the whole list. Most transitional: 2001 2003 2004 2007 2008 Least transitional: 2000 2002 2005 2006 2009 Basically every 2000s year was more or less transitional. The starter year of the decade shouldn't really count tho. Thank you. I also agree with your list. I like the way you did it. I debated 2006 and 2007. You make a great point. I debated including 2000 in the list because it was stagnant pop culturally. Second half of 2000 wasn’t different from the first half of 2000 despite PS2’s released and George W Bush’ election. 2000 was similar all around. Bill Clinton was president the whole year and 5th generation gaming dominated like in the mid to late 1990s.

For me personally, 2001 was BY FAR the most transitional year, followed by 2007. There were very strong cultural and technological shifts in those two years.
I don't think 2005 gets enough credit. The launch of YouTube and the release of the Xbox 360 were both huge events.
2000 was by far the least transitional. Controversial election aside, 2000 is basically a glorified 90s year. And 2002 and 2003 are essentially exactly the same culturally as 2001, with maybe some small differences. 2004-2005 had more drastic shifts but still culturally early 2000s. 2006 onward is late 2000s culture, which was solidified in 2007.

1. 2001 (9/11, Bush’s inauguration, Windows XP, Mac OS X, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, GTA 3, teen pop dies, iPod launches, iTunes launches, the Apple Store launches, Xbox and GameCube come out, Halo comes out, I could go on and on. Incredibly changeful year in every regard)
2. 2007 (the iPhone comes out, Netflix streaming launches, Cartoon Network goes downhill, Call of Duty becomes popular, Windows Vista releases, Tumblr launches, Apple TV comes out, LCDs outsell CRTs)
3. 2006 (YouTube becomes popular, Wii and PlayStation 3 come out, motion controls become popular, Facebook launches to the public, BlackBerry becomes popular, VHS is discontinued, Blu-Ray and HD DVD launch, The WB ends)
4. 2004 (CN City era starts, emo becomes popular, 90s remnant shows (Friends, Frasier, Hey Arnold, Rugrats) end, Motorola Razr comes out, MySpace becomes popular, Facebook launches for college students, broadband overtakes dial-up)
5. 2008 (Great Recession, Obama election, superhero movies (The Dark Knight, Iron Man) become the dominant film genre, App Store launches, Android launches)
6. 2009 (Barack Obama is inaugurated, rock declines, emo is dead, Facebook becomes the dominant social media platform, Windows 7 comes out, Nickelodeon changes their logo)
7. 2005 (YouTube launches, The Office premieres, Reddit launches, Xbox 360 comes out)
8. 2003 (Iraq War, 50 Cent blows up, crunk becomes popular, DVDs outsell VHS tapes)
9. 2000 (PlayStation 2 comes out, Linkin Park becomes popular, Bush election)
10. 2002 (Spider-Man comes out, Disney Channel’s Bounce rebrand, and that’s about it)
Kinda surreal how 2002 was such a calm year following literally the most tumultuous and unstable year of the 2000s, and probably the most tumultuous year of the 21st century until at least 2017, if not 2020.
