First of all, let’s define what actually the word technology means. The definition of technology is science or knowledge put into practical use to solve problems or invent useful tools. Whenever we use our scientific knowledge to achieve some specific purpose, we're using technology. Well, there is slightly more to it than that. Technology usually involves a specific piece of equipment, but that equipment can be incredibly simple or dazzlingly complex. It can be anything from the discovery of the wheel, all the way up to computers and MP3 players.
