What inventions hastened the development of electricity?

Electricity was always there in nature. It became known to man when the greeks found out that if you rub amber with silk it could attract tiny pieces of hair or paper.

Later Benjamin Franklin discovered that lightning is actually electricity and that it flows through metal easily. Scientists used electrolytes to produce electricities which led to the discovery of cells and batteries. This was used to produce DC. Then burning of fossil fuels led to enormous production of electricity(DC).

Edison discovered the many things known to man and revolutionized DC electricity. In that century Oersted discovered the connection of electricity and magnetism and Faraday postulated his laws about electromagnetism. It was Tesla who invented the dynamo that produced AC which challenged Edison's line of work.

(To be frank with you i think that Tesla should be considered as the father of inventions and not Edison.)

Tesla also devised a machine called Tesla Coil which had the potential to conduct electricity to the lights and other electronics via the air. He used the concept of radio waves(which are also electromagnetic waves). He even used this technology to produce a Mass Scale Tesla Coil which produce so violent electricity that it destroyed a huge plot of land. This came to be known as the Death Ray. But it is a marvelous invention.

You can download a 90 day trial of Windows Se7en Enterprise, both 32-Bit and 64-Bit versions!

It says that u must be an IT pro and u must have a Windows Live ID.

I recomend making a fake Windows Live ID and saying that you are an IT pro in order to download it.

Please download from Internet Explorer, it has issues in other browsers since Microsoft has a weird Download manager like utorrent that download the file.

The file is about 3 GB large, must be burned to a DVD, and is in ISO format.

The ISO file is bootable once burned to a DVD

Use ImgBurn, a free tool to burn the ISO image to the dvd.

DO NOT JUST COPY THE ISO FILE TO THE DVD, THAT WILL NOT WORK!!!

well, have fun!
