The time frame in which computers and software have developed has barely been more than 75
years. Yet their impact on individual humans and on societies has been as important as the
printing press, airplanes, television, and automobiles. The following is a summary of tools and
applications that have transformed the way businesses operate; wars are fought; and individuals
gather information, communicate, and use their leisure time. It is surprising that these have all
originated within the past 50 years. Probably half of these tools and applications are less than 25
years old.
