When is National Flash Drive Day?
Wednesday April 5thOn April 5, the date inventors filed their patent for the first USB Flash Disk was commemorated. Their invention changed the way we shop and manage digital information.
The flash drive became the go-to storage device as information flowed from our fingertips. The USB (universal serial bus) drive, which has been branded by several brands, makes digital information more available than ever before. We now store photos, transfer files, and upload gigabytes. Flash drives are not only that, but they also help make the world a better place.
Making a difference
These super handy computers make virtual classrooms possible by reducing budgets and services. They provide access to information in areas of the world that few of us take for granted. Flash drives go where the information superhighway cannot reach in third world and impoverished countries. Despite being textbooks to a majority of the population, books on contraband became windows to the world around them. Both films and radio recordings provide the same information to people in underdeveloped countries. These items may be a lifeline of hope in homeless communities, flash drives keep people connected by giving them access photos and a resumé.
Tuck a few bytes into your wallet and celebrate with a few new ways to appreciate the USB drive.
