The advent of the touch screen computer with Windows 7 and Apple touch screen PC's

03/11/2009

Technology called capacitative touch replaces need for a stylus and pen by detecting the motion or tap of a finger on the screen. The finger acts as a mouse. Steve Jobs is known for his knack for sensing which technology would be revolutionary in the computer field. He sensed the value of the mouse early on, and sensed the value of touch screen in the iPhone early on years later in his second term at Apple Computer. Each innovation brought the computer into everyday lives of millions of people.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
