Top 10 Tech This Week (04/19/2013)

Mashable, 20 April 2013.

It was another exciting week in tech. And if you missed it, worry not - that's why we're here with Top 10 Tech.

In a week with few product announcements, the biggest was perhaps the long-awaited Twitter Music launch. Surprisingly, in an online world full of music services, this one still stands out, earning our vaunted Mashable Choice. Speaking of music, there's now an app that allows you to touch and pluck strings simply by waving your hands in mid-air.

In Japan, meanwhile, Sony announced the deployment of what will be the fastest home broadband service in the world, running a speed of 2 GBps.

It was a big week for cool, unusual tech. A California start-up developed LED lights that can be incorporated directly on a bike's wheels. Fujitsu is developing technology that can turn any surface into a touchscreen. And if you're one of those who likes to tap on your steering wheel, you can now play drums while driving with a wheel cover that mimics a drum set.
