7 Outdated Technologies That Had Great Impact On The Lives Of Nigerian's by ochejoseph(m): 7:42am On Sep 04, 2014 |
1. Floppy disk : at a point in time it was our only source of storing data , as a university undergraduate you must have one to store either project or materials at a Business Center, it was very useful and very vulnerable. But show it to an undergraduate today and he/she will tell you what the heck I'd this ? 3 GSM Antenna : its very easy to forget how time flies , when the global system for Mobile telecommunication was introduced in Nigeria only major cities had access to the Network , in some areas people had to climb trees or mountains with their Nokia 3310 or Samsung R220 to get network. Those days call centers had GSM antenna attached to a phones to enable acquire signal,all that is history now ! 3.Cellophane water: Before the advent of pure water or what others choose to Call packaged water , Nigerian's had long been in the business. It was simple A. Buy a pack white nylons. B.Fill each with tap water C. Tie up with sack rope D. Refrigerate E. Start selling Thanks to pure water this technology has been archived 4,Nintendo, Sega and Un branded Games Yes this Names still exist as games today but many have forgotten how computer games were the exclusive preserve of rich kids , as a poor kid or a child from a middle income home computer games are things you see in school with that dude whose father owns the tallest building in the city. today with= N= 100 you can get any game software its that easy ! 5.VCR: Do you remember watching any Indian movie through the window of your neighbors house because your family could not afford one , you are not alone: Movies like MAD , Distinambari 10 10 10, Mother India, Snake in the monkey shadow were all available Towards the end of the 90s Video cassettes where everywhere but today most kids would not know what a VCR or VCP is used for, even CD and DVDs are been phased out thanks to technology Remember Toshiba ,Sharp ! How time Flies 6. Black and white TV At a time in our history Lucozade cellophane is the only thing that can confer color on your Black and white TV, it was a technology that lasted for a long time , you watch voltron, Super Ted every on the black and white screen every Saturday and eat white rice and stew which only come on sundays ! If you try that with your child today you won't like what the kid will tell you ! 7. ___________? I will leave the Seventh Blank and allow you decide which other outdated technology made great impact on the lives of nigerians www.twitter.com/ochejoseph http://tsuntsumediaservices..co.uk/2014/09/7-outdated-technologies-that-had-great.html?m=1 95 Likes 4 Shares |

Emulator for me I agree with you on the Nintendo part. I played Mario kart on n64 like crazy. I love it so much I just installed an n64 emulator on my note 3 and playing away with my dualshock 3 controller and it's almost as much fun as I remember it. I also bought several game boys - the original game boy then game boy color and finally game boy advance sp. Oh my, such nostalgia. I never really liked Sega or family con - they looked too cheesy to me even at the time but I had friends who could die playing it - international super star soccer, deluxe 18 Likes 2 Shares |

As an African kid back in the 90's during the festive period's I and my crew used to get flat planks/wood drill a small piece of hole on the wood with a 7" nail fill it with matches cover with a nail and use a wood on the nail to create explosive sounds that were quite loud we did this for years until a wood exploded and struck a kid on the head about 3years later then we stopped africans always had a way of inventing things no matter how crude or dangerous it is especially nigerians same way they had chewed kola and bathed with salt water a few weeks ago I keep saying this. Should the world get destroyed today the last humans to die off would be nigerians we invent anything 60 Likes |
