now we all know the internet and mobile phones and sat navs and dyson balls have been life changers.....but I was thinking of small things that you think are great and have changed the world for the better.
I'll start us off with .....MICROWAVE RICE.... a truly fantastic innovation in my opinion. I could never quite get the consistency of rice right. It was either to hard or to soggy.....now 2 mins in the microwave and I have perfect steaming hot rice every time. True genius.

Knitting needles. Think about it. That way the most impoverished person in the thirdest world country can take thread and create clothing.

Sat Navs. A brilliant invention and to think you put in a postcode the other side of the country, or to the other side of Europe on occasion, and hey presto it sends the info back to you car via a satellite in space and takes you all the way there. Incredible.
But isn't it annoying how it tells you how to get out of your own street? I only set mine on the last section, assuming I am ok getting onto the motorway for instance. But it means stopping to set it up. I'd love one clever enough to be told when to start telling me the way.
must admit....I turn sound off on mine....I just get so irritated at the bloody woman telling me to turn left on 300 yards....turn left on 200 yards...turn left in 100 yards....you are at the island..turn left !!! by this time I am shouting back...yes I F*cking know....you told me three times already....I'm not deaf or thick you know !!!!
Sound off....is the way forward !!

Agree brilliant invention,however, in the old days of paper (maps and/or scribbled notes) I would go somewhere once and be able to find it again years later with no problems. These days using the satnav I have no idea how to find sites I've been to multiple times.
And as for the sound, having a woman telling you where to go and how to drive, no point having two of them in the car
