iPhone Voted #8 Most Important Invention In Human History

Well well, the Brits have sure stirred things up again and pissed off Google, Microsoft, and their poor confused followers (sorry Apple haters, I had to do it 😀 ).

In a survey of 4,000 British people, they ranked the top 100 most important inventions/creations in human history, now, some no brainers like the wheel, which was ranked #1, and I love the iPhone, iPod, and iPad and I agree that it’s one of the important inventions in human history, but ranked #8? Not sure that it’s ranked above flushable toilets, but hey, it’s all good still.

BTW, I love how the iPhone is more important than Google or Mobile Phones. Period. 😀 (Also, where’s the iPad? It’s “revolutionary” and “magical”) On a final note, finally, what about Apple? Apple has changed the world in the last 20 or 30 years and influenced every major piece of technology that we use today, keep that in mind…
