I believe everybody has seen the James Bond movies, one of the most interesting part of those movies were gadgets and of course not to forget the beautiful & gorgeous girls ;-). However today we would try to look at the gadgets. Over the years the gadgets have evolved from being a household appliances to being a personal accessories. They have changed from being a necessity to being a style statement. Its almost like the rock n roll craze of the 1940–60’s era.
The earlier form of gadgets mostly were developed or invented for military purposes, but later turned to mass production for consumers. Till today it follows the same path all the latest technology have always been developed for military or government project purposes before its been released for consumer purpose. The few best examples are mobile devices, internet (or the earlier LAN & WAN).. etc. Most of the technology advancement for the gadgets have gone through the same cycle first for the government/secret services and than made public as consumer goods.
Here is just a small example of how mobile phones our most important part of life now a days have evolved.
So what happens with these evolving gadgets. Here is the list of it.
- The gadgets becomes powerful
- have more features
- more smaller and sleeker
- smarter
- stylish
- cheaper to some extent.
- and the most important of all it keeps you tempted to keep on buying or upgrading your old gadgets.
These gadgets have become so important in our day to day life that you cannot live with it. Unconsciously I have become so habitual to check my mobile(now with the social phone — twitter/facebook/orkut… etc..) every hours that if I forget it at home for one day it feel kind of a void in me. Some of my friends are so habitual of having their IPod with them than they even go to sleep listening to them. These gadgets have become the addiction next to coffee in everyday life. People have camped, stay awakened, killed, burgled, looted, beaten someone or fall under the credit card debts just to get the hands at the newly released gadgets.
