Name 1 Technological Feature That You Think Is Good

<< < (2/5) > >>

40hz:
One technology - but in three separate areas.  :P

1) Non-invasive medical scanning (PET, CAT, MRI, ultrasound, etc.) which eliminated unnecessary guesswork and dangerous, expensive, and painful "exploratory" surgeries.  

2) The CPU chip. It changed *everything* for the better and worse. Mostly for the better.

3) The IF statement in programming. That simple insight, which allowed a program to test and branch in response to the state of a condition, opened up the world for machine behaviors. Thank you Lady Ada Lovelace.

A lot of data we can carry into a pocket.

Speed of Google.
It's unbelievable how Google finds what we want within few tenths of second and among millions of websites.

AndyM:
Distributed electricity (alternating current)

pretty much nothing in our modern world is possible without it

Hail Tesla!
