Old Inventions
A. Music Cassette-Music cassettes which inside have a ribbon of magnetic tape were mostly
used in cars up until the mid- 1990s, and before that in the 1980s with Walkmans and at home.
You could buy them with music on them, or buy them and record your own music onto them.
These have been replaced by MP3s and Cds.
B. Black and white TV-Early TVs could not show color, and it was not until 1954 that the first
color TVs were introduced. They were very expensive, so most people really did not have color
TVs until the 1970s. We now have large LCD TVs which are much larger and have a clearer
picture.
C. Floppy Disk-The floppy disk was a way of storing and moving computer data. They were
very unreliable and could not hold much data. These days they have been replaced with USB
sticks and DVDs.
D. Telegraph and Morse Code-This technology was developed in about 1837 and was used
from the 1850s for at least hundred years. This technology has been replaced by email and the
internet, and before that by the FAX machine.
E. Film camera-This film camera was also developed in the 1830s, from ideas that had been
around for hundreds of years before. These days we use digital cameras and smart phones to take
pictures, but some people still think film looks better and use film cameras today.
