Basic Technology

Technology is often used for everything by almost everyone nowadays.
So what is technology? 
My simple answer to that question is that it is a method behind every advent, accomplishment or an innovative ideas. for instance; in Medicine, Engineering, Software, Electronics, Economics-Decision making processes and so-on. A means of organization: for instance, democracy might be considered a social technology.


The word technology originated from the Greek technologia, which is a combination of “techne”, meaning “craft”, and 
logia, and meaning “saying”. So technology might be considered the articulation of a craft - Geek


Technology is used today- referring to high technology like computers, cell phones, rockets and all other high complex processes. But the history of technology go all the way back to the controlled use of fire (from about 500,000 – 1 million years ago), the invention of the wheel (c. 4000 BCE), and beyond. The first technological tools were simple hand-axes made by our hominid ancestors millions of years ago.


Now, let us examine one process that we all go through everyday when making a cup of tea.






In conclusion, the above flow chart is a systematic break down showing the technology behind making a cup, if you want to make yours, make it a little different and let’s keep technology going.
