Did you know that the first computer, called the ENIAC, was the size of a room and weighed over 27 tons? It was built in 1946 and had less computing power than a modern calculator!
The first computer mouse was invented in 1964 by Doug Engelbart. It was made of wood and had two wheels that could move in any direction. It wasn't until Apple introduced the Macintosh in 1984 that the mouse became a standard feature on computers.
The internet was created in 1969 as a way for researchers to share information. It wasn't until the 1990s that the World Wide Web, as we know it today, was developed by Tim Berners-Lee. The first website was launched in 1991.
The concept of virtual reality (VR) has been around since the 1960s, but it wasn't until the 1990s that it became more widely known with the release of devices such as the VR headset. Today, VR is used in gaming, education, and even therapy.
In 2007, Apple revolutionized the smartphone industry with the release of the iPhone, changing the way we communicate, access information, and interact with technology. It paved the way for other smartphone brands to innovate and improve their products.
It's fascinating to see how far technology has come in such a short amount of time, and it will be exciting to see what new developments the future holds for us!
