Today’s
world has seen you and me grooving a lot of ingeniously made technologies that
came about as results of creative minds.
It will be
difficult to see somebody that will deny the fact that he/she is not directly
or indirectly benefitting from such technologies from those minds that have
truly shaped our world today.
You use Google on daily bases; you use Samsung devices (smartphones) to put
calls through to your friends abroad, you also make use of Yahoo, Apple and Facebook today.
All these
technologies have founders and funny enough apart from Mark Zuckerberg and few others; many of you groove those
technologies even without knowing the names of the brains behind them.
It is in
this vein that I decided to share this with you and also as a form of giving
honour to who honour is due.
At least
some form of recognition or even just knowing the names of the founders of
these 5 areas of technologies that have benefited you immensely will suffice
for now.
