The 100-Year March of Technology in 1 Graph - Derek Thompson - Technology - The Atlantic - 3 views

  •  
    I don't know all the places this could be used, but the graph in this article contains a STUNNING amount of information. I think the math is obvious, but I envision some phenomenal social science lessons, technology insights, the evolution of science, the implied connections to the ability of societies to spread information, the differences in cost of the various innovations and why that matters .... Hope you find something cool.
