What technologies still impress you most today?
jacquesm: Technology will only really amaze you when you have to do without it for a week. Or even just an hour. Even the most basic stuff is so far beyond what you personally would be able to re-create starting from scratch, even with all your knowledge that it might as well all be science fiction.We're standing on top of a nearly endless layercake of invention, unable to even conceive any more of what it would be like to stand on the plate the cake rests on.We'd probably last for about 15 minutes. But since the heart of the question is 'recently', I'd have to pick abs, without it I wouldn't be writing this.
