Technology is ever-changing. For all the gadgets we use today, we’ve seen so many rise and fall. We went from using records to tapes to the CDs and the MP3s; caught our favourite shows on black-and-white box televisions, then massive hi-definition flat screens; worked at huge computers, then ultra-portable tablets; chatted on rotary dial phones and then, eventually, slick smartphones.

Relatively quickly, video cassettes evolved to DVDs. Then, cable companies started offering digital video recorders to automatically record shows with existing cable equipment. That was when Blu-ray disks emerged to take advantage of hi-definition televisions. However, widespread availability of cloud storage — unlimited capacity that takes up zero physical space for the end user – is pushing flash drives toward obscurity. There are so many free cloud storage solutions with easy sharing features that flash drives are no longer cost-effective, especially when you can access your data from anywhere with an Internet connection.The declining popularity of all three of these gadgets can be attributed to one thing: the smartphone.

Millions use their smartphones as alarm clocks, for example. Camera sales have also fallen significantly because most smartphones have one. Even the flashlight app could replace the need for small, emergency flashlights.At one time, remotes were a marvel of technology. Television and cable remotes aside, you might have remotes for garage doors, game consoles, car starters and even some appliances.
