    USB Flash Drive
    The USB flash drive first started selling in the 2000's. Even though it was truly invented in 1999. Sources say it didn't actually hit the market till the 2000's. There was also much controversary over who actually invented it. The most common inventor I saw was Pua Khein Sheng a Malaysian engineer.

  • YouTube

    YouTube
    YouTube was founded on February 14th, 2005. Another discovery that was shocking to me! It was founded by Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim. In the video we watched "Did you know 2021" it said every minute 500 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube! I don't think the founders thought it would be as big as it is today!
  • The IPhone

    The IPhone
    Steve Jobs created the iPhone in 2007. That's when it was released anyways. Which was news to me I honestly thought they were around before then. Every year since the first launch Steve has dropped a new and improved model. More than 2.2 million have been sold since the first drop.
