If some people in some contexts use it in a shallow and meaningless way that doesn't make it into a buzzword.
It may mean they're ignorant (they call a perl CGI script which uploads a JPG to a website 'upload technology' because they don't know what CGI, or perl or scripts are) or it may mean they're trying to baffle you with bullshit (they know perfectly well what it is, but they'd rather you thought of it as something mysterious and clever than something simple and commonplace).
