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
