Technology has always existed, in
the past it was a more rustical manner, but at the end it was made to make
every task easier. An example of technology in the past was the hammer, the
wheel and the fishing rod. These are some of the invention which were made to
make human life more simple and easy. Let’s talk about the technology we know,
the modern technology. Let’s recap a little bit about the most important point
on the development of technology through history.
● In 1947
the first digital computer was turned on and just 4 years later the first
commercially computer developed by Ferranti Mark was available.
●24 years
later Microsoft was founded by Bill Gates and just 1 year after this Steve Jobs
and Steve Wozniak founded Apple Computers.
●In 1991
the internet service becomes available for unrestricted computer use. Moving to
the 21th century in 2001 the Wikipedia goes online and 2 years after Myspace
