As an inveterate gadget buyer and tinkerer, this list of the top 100 gadgets of all time naturally drew my attention. Some of the highlighted items I had never heard of, but other favourites are listed.
Who can forget the ETCH-A-SKETCH, released in 1960? The first time I came across this marvelous machine, it confirmed my suspicion that I had no artistic talent or hand-eye coordination. The first conclusion has stood the test of time, while the second has improved with age.
For on-going impact, I have to select the TREK THUMBDRIVE, released in 1999. I received the first one of these as a promo from a vendor who cleverly put the invitation to an event on the drive. It was a real "wow" moment, and has completely changed the way I move and store data.
