They used it to surprise attack on Poland
Germany like every other country has fought wars by many different methods as the weapons and tactics and strategic aims of the wars changed over time. It would help if your question was more specific.
Blitzkrieg (German, "lightning war"; listen (help·info)) is "a military doctrine of an all-mechanized force concentrating of tanks, infantry, artillery and air power, concentrating overwhelming force and rapid speed to break through enemy lines, and once the latter is broken, proceeding without regard to its flank." While the term "Blitzkrieg" was not widely used until after the start of the war, German tank general Heinz Guderian is generally accepted to have outlined the principles.During the interwar period, aircraft and tank technologies matured and were combined with systematic application of the German tactics of infiltration and bypassing of enemy strong points.[1] When Germany invaded Poland in 1939, Western journalists adopted the term Blitzkrieg to describe this form of armored warfare.[2]"Blitzkrieg" operations worked during the 'Blitzkrieg' campaigns, 1939 - 1941. These operations were dependent on surprise penetrations (e.g. the penetration of the Ardennes forest region), general enemy unpreparedness and an inability to react swiftly enough to the attacker's offensive operations.[3]Only later, during the invasion of the Soviet Union, would the flaws of "Blitzkrieg" come to be realized. In France and Poland the foot-bound infantry had been, at most, a few hours behind the armored spearheads. In the vast open Russian steppe delays of hours would become days.[4] The Allies, both in the West and the Soviet Union, would realise the failings of "Blitzkrieg" warfare.[5]Academics since the 1970s have questioned the existence of "Blitzkrieg" as a coherent military doctrine or strategy. Many academic historians hold "Blitzkrieg" itself to be a myth. Others continue to use "Blitzkrieg" to describe German strategy and doctrine throughout the Second World War.
Nazi Germany made the decision to invade the SOVIET UNIONon June 22, 1941. It would be a disastrous decision for the Nazis since the Soviet Union could not be overrun with the same blitzkrieg tactics that made the Nazis successful in overtaking most of their European neighbors.
The fear Germany instilled in their wartime tactics were based on the tactics used by Vlad the Impaler
Blitzkrieg offensive method is still used a lot today because it is effective and allows for the military force to use surprise against their enemy. See related link below. On that site go to the link "shock and awe" down at the bottom of it. More importantly, note that "blitzkrieg" was not a German invention. It merely is an implementation of the theories of mobile armored warfare developed by Liddle Hart and Fuller and in the 1920s and 1930s. The theory has been modified over the past 100 years, but the basic precepts are still valid. Today, we refer to strategy similar to blitzkrieg as "combined arms tactics" or sometimes "mobile warfare".
Germany used blitzkrieg tactics, which are fast, surprise attacks also known as lightning tactics. Germany used these tactics on Poland in the Lightning War.

German used blitzkrieg tactics on Poland during the lightning war.
Blitzkrieg tactics are fast, surprise attacks on a country using planes and bombs, and a lot of infantry. A country, such as Germany, will fly over a country and bomb it, and then send a large army in to finish the attack. They will then leave the country before the country being attacked could gather their military and defend themselves. Since the attack was usually a surprise to the country being attacked, they don't have time to prepare, which makes the attacks very successful. Blitzkrieg tactics are also called lightning tactics, and Germany used them on Poland during the Lightning War.
Nazi Germany is most noted for its involvement in World War 2 and for the Holocaust under Adolf Hitler. It was the aggressor in the war, using blitzkrieg tactics to strike fast.

Yes.
You forgot to specify what war are you interested in. In the First World War the tactics was 'blitzkrieg' (German word for 'lightning war). It was based on the Schlieffen Plan which was drawn up in 1905 by General Count Alfred von Schlieffen.
Hitler used technology in his Blitzkrieg tactics via the latest military technology available at the time. He was using armored vehicles and air strikes, which were fairly new types of military technology at the time.
The first use of true blitzkrieg tactics by the German Wermacht was during the invasion of France. For many years it was thought that Poland was the first to fall to blitzkrieg tactics, but modern historians and tacticians now believe that the invasion of Poland was carried out by the use of more traditional military methods.Big Skynerd
