Technology With Ripple Effects

2/9/2015

 
Technology is defined by Google as "the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry". Others would simply say the branch of knowledge dealing with engineering or applied sciences. The Google spin on tech being applied for practical purposes is nice but really ? So tech is major overkill when the solution is more expensive or complicated to implement than the problem it solves.

My TOP 5 things in Technology

1. Generating Fire ( friction added with the right fuel or the right materials combined)
      Helped the human race survived longer . People didn't freeze to death, or e-coli from raw meat, or attacks from wild animals.

2. Wheels (nature's round shape put to good use)
       All the items people could move via rolling; tons of rock, produce from farms, transportation. Those round circles are everywhere, gears in machinery, pulleys, turbines generators, cars, trains planes, toys.

3. Printing press
        Sure some would say pencil and paper but the press took communication to the masses to a whole new level. Helped with collaboration across all sectors. Allows information to be spread quickly.

4. Transistors
      This major building block gave birth to the electronic age we now enjoy. Micro chips are in everything (ie phones, tvs, computers, stereos, appliances) for the modern industrial nations.

5. Software
    I would to say we could start with Basic or Pascal but software is a tool for analysis and to create features in numerous products.
