FTR. I went with ‘gizmos’ when they became commonplace, not necessarily when they were invented.

23

Nevermind–I hit quick reply instead of preview with 3 unanswered questions.

24

At least I’m not gonna finish last this time… (looks at criminey.jicket)

3 - while technically released in 1979, the walkman was essentially an 80s device IMHO
5 - while available earlier, it wasn’t until all network programming was in color in the 60s that they became widely adopted

And really - insulin, talkie movies? I really can’t see how those could be considered “gizmos”…

Well, I have to make up for my previous Giant Monster Movie feud. By my count that one had 5 (half!) conch-ish questions, including one near-pure (only 1 deviant answer) conch. (I consider it a conch if the number of replies that don’t match the top answer is a single digit)

I went for when the items first appeared, as in the question (with a little bit of fudging here and there). I knew ‘antibiotics’, ‘manned spaceflight’ and ‘World Wide Web’ aren’t “gizmos” but I thought they’d be popular answers. Apparently not!

38

Yeah, I’ll cover for ya…just this once. :wink:

I’ll suck as usual, but it’s still fun to play.
