Tech Facts #2

 Hi guys πŸ˜€ as I told yesterday I am back with the second post of tech facts. Let's get a bit wiser than yesterday together πŸ˜‰.

1) Apple has a “smoking” ban on their computers, meaning if you smoke while using any Apple computer, the warranty becomes void. Maybe, this is the first time you see this fact, if you are a smoker for your physical health quit smoking other atleast quit smoking while you are near a iMac πŸ˜‚ to avoid losing your financial health.

3) Every advertisement for iPhone’s have 9:41 set as the time. This is because in 2007, Steve Jobs first announced the iPhone at that time. The first photo of the iPhone showed the time 9:41, at exactly 9:41am.

4) A Petabyte is a lot of data. A 1 PB hard drive could hold 13.3 years of HD-TV video. If you get that much storage what will you store in that hard drive πŸ˜‚. I will store all the games I want to play πŸ˜‚.

6) A group of 14 people (equally divided into two groups) meet four times a year as part of the "Key Ceremony." These 14 people belong to the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and are the ones who actually control the way we navigate the internet. The organisation is responsible for assigning numerical Internet addresses to websites and computers and translating them into the normal web addresses that people type into their browsers.

8) Today, almost 40 percent of the world's seven billion people are connected to the internet. So, around 40 percent of world's population are not only citizens of our own country but also netizens of the internet πŸ˜ƒ.


9) The first computer mouse wasn’t made from plastic. Back in 1964, Doug Engelbart invented the first ever computer mouse! Back then, it was made out of wood. It was rectangular and featured a little button on the top right. There are many mices and keyboards that are made out of wood. Check the online stores if you want to buy one πŸ˜‚.

10) The most expensive phone number cost millions. Back in 2006, Qatar Telecom hosted a charity auction where they sold the phone number 666-6666.  It sold for $2.75 million, bought by an anonymous bidder. I had two question after I read this. Why? For what?😢


That's it folks πŸ™Œ thanks for reading ❤️😊 hope you become a little wiser than yesterday.
