EVERYTHING NEW IS OLD AGAIN
According to a cool article titled “11 ‘Modern’ Technologies That Are Way Older Than You Think” the MP3 player was invented in 1979 by two guys who created a portable muic player that contained a memory chip that could hold up to three and a half minutes of music; the car was first invented in 1769 when a Frenchman created a steam-engine-powered automobile that drove two and a half miles per hour; and the world’s first video game was not 1973’s Pong, but 1948’s Cathode Ray Tub Amusement Device, created by physics professor Thomas Goldsmith Jr. (Cracked.com)
