    Where might I find a ********?

    Folks, I'm looking for a site/s that gives a reasonably detailled listing of the following:

    Key technology related inventions since 1940 - a simple listing would do, just the basic name and date it was invented and marketed. eg. Compact Discs - 1980 or something similar.

    Also, along with this, something perhaps along the lines of human achievements since 1940 as well, eg Moon Landing - 1969 or similar.

    I've been looking around google for a while but it's difficult to know exactly what to search for, I figure it might be the sort of thing some people have bookmarked already so any links appreciated

    It's usually the simplest things you miss

    The only other thing i have been able to find is this:

    http://www.greatachievements.org/gre...nts/index.html

    But that puts achievements in different categories, so if you are looking for something specific, then it will be much easier to find


    hope that helps


    <edit> arse! just realised it was engineering specific! oh well </edit>
