8 Jules Verne Inventions That Came True (Pictures)
Jules Verne was born 183 years ago today, and oh how much has changed. This is a nice little entertaining summary of some gadgets we take for granted today that Verne had the foresight to think of long before their time. It kind of makes you wonder, what types of "science fiction" gadgets from today will be everyday items in 150 years or so? And also, we keep saying how fast technology is advancing today and wondering how far it can go, but don't you think they probably said the same thing in the mid-nineteenth Century?
And one more thing, if you missed the Google Doodle today, you might want to kick yourself. If you read this before it's removed, it's worth a trip to Google. If it's too late, cross your fingers and hope they have a fully interactive version saved in the Doodles Archive.
