            2014 - 114 - 1900....what a different time!  


            Thinking back to my childhood (which was only 50+ years ago), my cell phone absolutely amazes me.  I get email, phone calls, text messages, directions to anywhere, and can actually ask a question out loud and get an answer.

              Given that I went to sleep in 1900, the most surprising technology for me would be the internet. I would be able to go online and google the history of the last 114 years.


              I also would be amazed at how far medical technology has involved. People are living longer do to this.

                    i love this question. And also love thinking about such things. I love technology. I am crazy crazy about ATM machines. I love the internet. Also my favorite are devices you can carry around, like tape recorders, cameras, phones with cameras, etc.

                      Me too, I like buying the latest gadgets. My wife has to stop me sometimes because I get carried away with it all.
