Everyday Tech. Blog Post 3

The piece of technology I chose would be the "highlighter". The reason for choosing this would be that before this invention people would most likely have to circle, underline or make arrows on the sides of the book pages to have a way to remember the statement or important information. With the use of the highlighter you just draw overtop of the area of interest and it is stored and sticks out from the rest of the text. I use a highlighter with just about every text book I use, it makes it much more simple than copying down on a separate sheet of paper what you need to remember, as well as it makes it less cumbersome and you only have to remember to bring one item, which would be the book. The highlighter may not be useful to everyone but it can serve many other purposes other than for book use. You can draw whatever you like with it, and most are vibrant colors that stand out and are good for doing outlines of pictures and such.
