AMAZING Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 During my lifetime? I haven't been alive that long, but I would say Wikipedia. An awesome over-all invention! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloudedsunny Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Digital cameras I love the old ones too (heh I have like twenty!!) but my own trusty digicam does most of my talking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkeh_renn Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 hmm Greatest invention... Ipod/Mp3 players... They are lovely on long journeys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic Hug'o's Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 For me the greatest invention is the pencil! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smumpkins Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 I would have to say that the best invention would be the Nintendo DS. Great to ignore the outside world, while on the go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awesome_Paul Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Wow Dominic, you must be the oldest person EVER! Being alive since the pencil was invented :P But for me, It will be unusual but I would have to say steam wallpaper stripping machine. Mainly because without these, you would seriously damage your wrist if stripping wallpaper with a scraper. I would know I done both ways, First I used the scraper for 2 hours, my wrist/arm was killing me, and i didn't even get a quarter of it off. With the steam machine, the wallpaper comes off in seconds (well you have to leave it ion the wall for 30 secs to heat it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Levy Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 I don't think I've added mine yet, and its my topic! ^^; I have to say Photoshop is the greatest invention in my lifetime. (The first version was released in 1990, the year I was born) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meeptroid Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 I personally think one of the best inventions overall out of anyone's lifetime is the COMPUTER and the INTERNET. Because of them, we are discussing about inventions on this topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fable Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 The Cell Phone but far, since you can call someone in China if your in New York. b) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOOM Bringer Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Well I think the internet is the greatest invention, I just don't know whether I was alive or not at the time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I'm surprised that nobody has said the Mac OS Leopard or the iPhone. But what can I say? I'm a true Mac geek now. Apple products are by far some of the best inventions of my lifetime. I'm sure in 50 years though we'll be watching our holograms and reading news off our walls from Windows Surface. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awesome_Paul Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Well I think the internet is the greatest invention, I just don't know whether I was alive or not at the time... Found that quite interesting, The internet, though half of us has no clue when it was made :P So I been doing some research (well 5 minutes) and this is what I found: Well The idea first popped up when Packet wswitching was invented around 1960. Though this was only for military use for faster communications. Then there is all other informations. But the World Wide Web was invented early 1990's I could go into so much detailed, But they are the main dates :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUteFiona Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 hmmm...for me....COMPUTER!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiuze Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 The computer or else I will be so bored forever. XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neon_halo Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 The computer is awesome. How was life in the 1940's, btw? XD As for my own favourite invention...I'm not so sure ^-^ While I want to say fingerprinting (because where would CSI be if there wasn't that ;-; ) I am not a child of the 80's. I guess...I pick MP3s. *nod* 'cause, awesomeness, omg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torridity Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Hmmm... most of things I would say were invented before I was born. I can think of one recent thing though - PVRs, aka TiVo or whatever other brand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
