The most common point deduction was in the REFLECTION category—specifically the lack of reflection on the negative aspects of your 3 chosen technologies. Without identifying the negative trade-offs of using a particular technology, you aren't truly being reflective (and arguably in denial about its influence). I read waxing tributes to technology, but few thoughtful concerns and criticisms.
The second most common reason for point deduction was not comparing your experiences with those of the students in the videos. Remember, you had 750 words (some of you went way over... please don't) to play with to provide evidence that you viewed the videos and were reflectively contemplating your own uses as compared/contrasted to what you viewed. If you only posted around 300 or 400 words, then chances are your post sorely lacked in all areas within the rubric above.
I was surprised that many of you focused on only the fairly recent technologies that you "can't live without" as opposed to thinking about those technologies that have influenced you the most across your entire lifespan. Haven't books, pens and paper, and TV made a major impact on you as well? One of you commented that no interesting technologies developed in the 60's, 70's and 80's. Really? I also notice that many of you throw around the word technology without any real meaning attached to it. Hint: Technology does not simply refer to computers. But we'll read more on that topic a bit later.
