  3. Technology in the past

  4. Compared to Technology Today

  5. Historical Significance • One of the most horrific tragedies to happen during this time was the attacks on the World Trade center, Pentagon, and Shanksville, PA on September 11, 2001. • Also, Hurricane Katrina occurred in August of 2005.

  6. Events/ News • As we all know, the tragedy of the 9/11 attack occurred during 2001. • Two al-Qaeda suicide bombers hijacked planes and crashed them into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. • 2,998 people were affected.

  7. Hurricane Katrina • Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf of Mexico on August 28th, 2005. • $81 million dollars worth in damage • More than 1,800 people lost their lives. • Still recovering today with lots of help from the New Orleans Saints won the Super Bowl XLIV.

  8. Economy, Money, and Inflation • The economy was slowly getting worse as time went on. 2000-2004 were pretty good and well balanced, while in 2005 things got more expensive. • Went from Bull economy to Bear economy. • Right now we are in a Bear economy as well.

  9. Economy • We had a pretty well balanced economy during this time. Everyone made money, and had jobs, and things weren’t as expensive as they are today. • Did you know that Schuylkill County sold the most Christmas trees during 2004? The economy is so bad today that people didn’t even buy Christmas trees!

  10. Clothing Styles • Clothing from this time was the same as what we wear today. • A lot of the name brands were brought up during this time. • For example: Hollister, American Eagle, Aeropostale, and Abercrombie & Fitch. • People would basically wear jeans, hooded sweatshirts, UGG boots, and stuff we have today.

  11. Price of a House • The average cost of a house during this time was around $140,000.00 which compared to today is the cost of a older home. Today some houses can cost $300,000.00 or higher.

  12. Music • Here are some of the top songs from 2000: • Say my Name by Destiny’s Child • What a Girl Wants by Christina Aguilera • Breathe by Faith Hill • Since You’ve Been Gone by Kelly Clarkson • Fallin’ by Alicia Keys • I Hope You Dance by Lee Ann Womack • Pon de Replay by Rihanna We had very good music during this time. It was actually music, and was enjoyable. The most popular genre was Country during these years, but Pop was on the rise as well.

  13. Music • Some famous artist from 2000 till 2005 are: Jennifer Lopez, Christina Aguilera, Brittney Spears, Madonna, Nelly, Pink, Usher, Shania Twain, Gretchen Wilson, Bowling for Soup, Jessica Simpson, and Ashley Simpson. • I think this era really introduced rap music, and fowl language in songs today. Music back in 2000 – 2005 was actually good music.

  14. Price of Gas Gas prices increased during this time. The prices reached very high numbers at this time. Gas prices keep on increasing today. It is usually a higher price in the summer because of travel. From this to this!

They should really bring back these shows!

  17. Popular Culture • The “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” is released. • 51 million turned in to watch the first broadcast of Survivor. • The Olympics that were held during this time were: Sydney 2000, Salt Lake 2002, and Athens 2004.

  20. Technology • In 2000 Microsoft 2000 was released, and is still used today. Today’s Microsoft program is more developed and easier to use. • There was a virus released called ILOVEYOU which shut computers down world wide. • There were many new viruses, programs, and software that you can download. These years were when technology took a huge advancement. • Also, Wikis were the web site to have back then.

  21. Inventions • Segway Human Transporter • IPod • Camera phone • YouTube • Wireless Headset • Artificial Liver

  22. Taking a Look Back • As we go on through out these years, think of everything that we have accomplished. From 2000-2005 is when technology really stepped it up. I am not blaming these years, but I think we would have less things that are hard to do, such as cyber bulling.
