Technologies that Changed the world

I love technology.When I was in my 12th class ,I started looking to PC's in the internet cafe and memorable PC games,watching them  on a black and white CRT screen and after that started using the internet almost lost my hearing from the awful dial-up noise when the internet first started catching up and also had witnessed the painful transition from the floppy discs to USB flash drives.The reason I'm remembering my technology history is the fact that the technology is changing a-lot and it is in the more advanced which is changing the world.I found  few things that technology changed the world.


1.Internet/www


Coming in at #1 is the internet ,broadband and www.Our slavery to Google,our addiction to all social networking sites,ability to keep up-to-date on any new topics like news ,blogging and more,much convenient way to send and receive far too many emails.Internet enabled so many other extraordinary phenomenon that it's starting to realize the internet as we know it only arrived in 1990's but for sure internet didn't take long time to change our lives forever. 


2. Personal Computers/Laptop Computers


30 years ago I didn't remember the exact year may be 1981 that year was big year for computer,IBM launched the 5150 model which is so called "Personal Computer" and the Osborne 1 became the first portable computer which was the first one in the computers and day by day the growth of computers are huge.


3.Mobile Phones


Take a look at your tiny little cell phone ,the first mobile phones which Motorola unleashed on the market in early '80s,were confined to the car and were the size of a briefcase.Now a days mobile phone taking us to most advanced level in technology.I will be thankful to the mobile technology that evolved quite rapidly over the past few years.


4.Social Networking 


Internet based social networks really are very new.SixDegrees.com in 1997 is the earliest social network site,but it wasn't until MySpace ,which launched in 2003,that social networks began to appeal to the masses.Now, of course,there's Facebook,which gives you endless opportunities to have world collide,Twitter,which empowers you to become your part of the social activities which makes every thing up-to-date with various topics by dropping life tidbits,wisdom and your comings and goings to your anxious followers and now Google+.


5.GUI(Graphical User Interface)


In the late '70s and early '80s GUI design advanced extensively ,we can take it for granted that we interact with our computer using a mouse and have easy- to- understand icons and other graphical controls instead of remember a bunch of computer commands.


Finally I want to say that today's life without cell phone ,laptop or an internet connection seems unthinkable. Technology is ruling our daily life.These technologies has changed the world!!!!
