Tech 2013: BBC News Online's most read technology stories

It's been a busy year in technology. From Edward
Snowden's NSA/GCHQ leaks to a severe decline in PC sales; from the launch of the PlayStation 4 to the aborted sale of Blackberry; from Microsoft buying Nokia's handset business and preparing to part ways with Steve Ballmer to the releases of
Samsung's bestselling Galaxy S4 handset and Android KitKat.

Google Glass caused a privacy storm even though the photo-taking eyewear has yet to be released; Candy Crush Saga became a gaming sensation for its British developer
King; self-deleting photo app Snapchat reportedly turned down a $3bn (£1.8bn) offer from Facebook; and what seemed like hundreds of 3D printers, smartwatches and tablets flooded onto the market - many bankrolled by crowdsourced cash.

None of the above made our most-read list - based on which tech story attracted the most clicks and finger flicks - for each month of the year.
But here is what did pique your interest:

January: The tablet that turns lumpy
"Why settle for flat?" asked California-based Tactus Technology.
The firm's innovation - the ability to raise transparent buttons out of a touchscreen's surface - has still to make it to market.
But if interest in a demonstration unit on display at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas is anything to go by, then much of the public is unconvinced by current tap-to-type flatscreen keyboards.
