What is technology?
In: 0
“Technology” is a word that describes using knowledge to make useful stuff.
Technology can be simple (bang one rock against another to make it sharp, then attach the sharp rock to a long stick to make a stabby thing for killing food animals or enemy tribesmen).
Technology can be complicated (computers, TV’s, airplanes, nuclear power plants).
Technology is everywhere. Within the past 200-ish years, technology has started progressing so fast that it’s started significantly changing how large numbers of people live within the space of a human lifetime.
For example:
– Anyone older than 45 clearly remembers the world before most people had computers in their home.
– Anyone older than 35 clearly remembers the world before the Internet was a thing that most people used.
– Anyone older than 25 clearly remembers the world before everyone had a smartphone in their pocket.
