Name 1 Technological Feature That You Think Is Good

Renegade:
Now, that's pretty broad, but it can be anything in technology from software, to hardware to basic physics underlying a cool technology (say why there).

One thing that I find is pretty good is the way YouTube only loads enough of a video to buffer a few seconds (maybe tens of seconds) of a video and then lets you watch.

It saves bandwidth for them and you.

Now, it is a double-edged sword, as you can't just load a video then come back to it and seek through the video, but overall, I think it's a great compromise for speed, bandwidth, and viewer experience.

Do you refer to the last few years only or there is not a limit of time?

Giampy:
Laser eye surgery.
Thanks to it I have succeeded in getting rid of glasses, a very torture tool for me.

Well, hopefully more recent, but if there's a good reason for something older, why not?

That's something that I should think about... Good one!
