Technology
is about making lives easier for people and improving functions, tools,
organizing data and how people live. And it refers to a better modification in machinery
and also life style, improvement in production. Technology has affected society
and its surroundings in a number of ways. Technologies are not usually
exclusively products of science, because they have to satisfy requirements such
as utility, usability and safety.
In many societies, technology has helped
develop more advanced economies and has allowed the rise of a leisure class. Animals
use basic technology apart from humans such as dolphins and bats to define
objects and speaking using sound waves.
The history of technology:
Human ancestors
have been using stone tools since the Stone Age; making a stone tool was simple;
hard stone with flint was one of the basic hammer stones that was made in the
Stone Age. After that fire was a turning point in the technological evolution
of humankind which helped them with cooking and improving their tools and making
harvesting food an easier process and mining and harvesting food. Wheels were
invented at that time and was developed in The 16th century, it was the beginning of the modern era of science, a
time of great exploration and extraordinary literature.
Major
changes in philosophy and science took place Before the 17th century science
and scientists were not truly recognized Like at first people like the 17th
century genius Isaac Newton were called natural philosophers, since there was
no concept of the word scientist for most of the 17th century.
The first
Industrial Revolution and modern manufacturing began with steam engines
replacing animals Laboring in the 18th century was very hard on workers because only a few countries had reach the machinery technology.
How has technology affected our
business?
Technology changed
the business and improved it, Thanks to the Internet communicating and making
deals is much easier to do online and personal information is more accessible and
secure; Storing important documents on the computer is safer and can’t get lost

schedules and other essential information.
Why are businesses investing in online
project management?
At first people used to keep everything
simple by using logbooks, calendars and paper files to plan, execute and
document all the phases of a project and used a lot of space to store the all
these paper and hard work; some companies have strict policies about keeping
records for many years and they had to recycle it .

they were working on, and some companies develop a private server and
application for the computer and the cell phone.
