- 00:22
which of the following periods i can hear your pencil
- 00:25
lines Alright before that night let's jump right in and
- 00:28
start with option a the nineteen thirties uh they were
- 00:31
actually a pretty depressing decade Greatly depressing Some might say
- 00:35
good times and technology tend to go hand in robotic
- 00:40
hand And sadly for the nineteen thirties it was not
- 00:43
the best of town for the economy let alone people
- 00:45
personal finances Folks were struggling to just get by buying
- 00:49
new fangled doo hickey's didn't really rank so high on
- 00:52
the omg must have wish list when compared to buying
- 00:55
enough food to feed the family The nineteen thirties was
- 00:58
time for intangible innovation social reform and the like the
- 01:02
stuff money can't buy which is lucky or no one
- 01:05
could have afforded it we can put a back on
- 01:08
the shelf let's do some recon on be the nineteen
- 01:11
forties Well how did tech advancement in this era compared
- 01:14
to that Of the nineteen tens Well the forties were
- 01:17
characterized by some serious technological advancement but in a rather
- 01:21
offensive field weaponry advanced weaponry for every household wasn't something
- 01:26
that most people were interested in Unlike the radio's in
- 01:29
the nineteen tens which were very nice additions to any
- 01:32
household advancement in the field of medicine may have held
- 01:35
greater worth to everyday people but not necessarily in an
- 01:38
everyday kind of way meaning we can take b out
- 01:41
Yeah but see then well the nineteen seventies saw improvements
- 01:44
in existing household appliances which sounds a lot like an
- 01:47
improvement to the everyday life of everyday people But let's
- 01:51
face it though unless improvements to our lives are mind
- 01:54
blowing were pretty quick to complain Having the newest sleekest
- 01:58
toaster that seems a that much people's lives probably weren't
- 02:02
so radically changed by the advancements of the seventies as
- 02:05
one radios first started appearing in homes Which brings us
- 02:08
to de the nineteen nineties a magical time where mobile
- 02:12
phones were just beginning to become actually mobile another technology
- 02:17
That advanced in leaps and bounds was the worldwide web
- 02:20
a k a the internet revolutionising how we share information
- 02:24
ideas art and even culture not to mention how we
- 02:28
interact Instant messaging anyone Well as with the radio and
- 02:32
other household technologies in the early nineteen nineties the technological
- 02:35
advancement of the nineteen nineties transformed everyday peoples lives on
- 02:40
a day to day basis And that makes me the
- 02:42
right answer Who knows what the future of technology holds
- 02:45
Only someone had invented a device teo see into the 00:02:48.565 --> [endTime] future Cirie would you get on that please
