Just a quick poll to see which country has the best inventions, stupid poll but should be interesting.
for me ours (england) has to be the internet, but concorde comes a close second, and the suspension bridge third.

Canadian inventions eh...how about the Light Bulb...Henry Woodward invented the electric light bulb in 1874 and sold the patent to Thomas Edison. The Pacemaker was invented by Dr. John A. Hopps in 1950. Oh...the Television. Reginald A. Fessenden patented a television system in 1927. The Telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876. Alexander Fleming discovered Penicillin in the 20's I believe. Anyway...cool idea for a thread.

The problem with that is, everytime WBW crashes they walk into the server room and find CK with his dick stuck in an USB port.

The internet was invented by two people. One them was a Belgian man. They belgians also invented the phone and we are one of the makers of the world's smallese and most powerfull satelite.

We invented a lot of things but man can't say them all here

"Some people confuse WWW with Internet. They're not the same.

The internet was invented by the US Department of Defence as a means of communication if we were attacked by Russia. That was in 1969.

The WWW on the other hand was invented by an Englishman called Tim Berners-Lee in Switzerland in 1989. The Internet dates back to the 1950s and 60s, although few of us knew of it then as it was part of the American defence system."

Linux, IRC, and lots of other things I can't remember now.

Edit: Xylitol, Internet Encryption methods, and the great wireless inventions from Nokia and other Finnish technology companies.
