TED Talks
A TEDx Talk is a showcase for speakers presenting great, well-formed ideas in under 18 minutes. TED is a nonpartisan nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks.
The T gadgets that made way in our lives are-
Touchpad
Do I need to say anymore when I just say touchpad. We all know A touchpad is designed to be controlled with your finger. By sliding your fingertip along the surface, you can move the cursor on the screen.
In July 2011 HP TouchPad a tablet computer was released.
Tesla Powerwall
As solar power becomes more and more affordable–it’s cheaper than gas and coal in many parts of the country–the new challenge becomes finding a way for your home to store excess energy and use it when needed. Tesla’s Powerwall, launched in 2015, offers that ability with a high level of sophistication, letting you program your usage to collect energy during off-peak hours, then consume it at peak times. As states begin to implement energy pricing that varies based on time of use–California, Arizona, and Massachusetts already have–that means it will save you even more money while also putting less stress on local power plants.
Nest Thermostat
Who would have guessed there would be a market for an attractively designed thermostat? Tony Fadell, the inventor of the iPod, and former Apple engineer Matt Rogers. The pair founded smart thermostat company Nest in 2010,a surprising pivot after designing one of the most popular gadgets in history. Nest’s thermostat lets you preprogram a temperature schedule. It learns your habits over time and, based on motion sensing and devices that are connected to your Wi-Fi, can tell whether someone is home and adjust accordingly. This all lowers the amount of energy your home uses when you’re not home, saving customers money and the planet from unnecessary carbon emissions. It’s perhaps no surprise then that Google paid $3.2 billion for Nest in 2014.
Tinder (app)
Tinder® is the world’s most popular app for meeting new people. most dependable wingmate—wherever you go, we’ll be there. If you’re here to meet new people, expand your social network, meet locals when you’re traveling, or just live in the now, you’ve come to the right place. Tinder is called “the world’s hottest app”.
