The Best Inventions of 2017 According To TIME – And What We Think About Them!
Earlier in November, TIME magazine released its roundup of the best inventions of 2017. This list was inclusive of technology, makeup, food, architecture, cars, fashion… You name it – if category diversity was the brief of their copywriters and journalists, they have hit the nail on the head. And it’s a great read for entrepreneurs!
We wanted to share this article with you and highlight some of the best inventions of 2017 which we think are great.
Keeping Your Home Safe In The Digital Age
We live in a world where it’s easy to put your heating on at home when you’re miles away; there is so much technology inventions have allowed us to do! We can essentially ‘talk’ to our homes via devices – it’s amazing to think how far this technology has come even in the last ten years. But in the digital age we’re also faced with the possibility of technology being hacked, creating a world of problems for the user. But what if there was an invention which can eliminate that threat and keep your home safe? Enter Norton Core – this wi-fi router is not just to enable connectivity around the house but it also detects anything unusual in your system – if there is a threat of a virus, your device will simply be cut off from your home network. As a studio of developers who love technology and the advances the industry is seeing, we think this is a great idea! Prevention is always better than damage resolution – especially when it comes to you own home. View the product here.
‘I Don’t Know How To Cook’ Will No Longer Be A Valid Excuse
Hands up if you LOVE BuzzFeed’s Tasty profiles on Instagram and Facebook *holds up hand*. If you know about it, you love it – and if you don’t then you must have a look! These profiles break down international and complex recipes into bite sized quick videos which users can share and save for later. It’s one of the internets biggest cooking accounts – and for a great reason. You can learn how to cook a delicious meal in less than 5 minutes. But as the head of BuzzFeed’s Product Labs found out, there is a difference between watching and liking a video of someone else cooking; to actually doing it yourself.
So Ben Kaufman and his team have invented Tasty One Top – an induction cooktop which can sync with the BuzzFeed Tasty phone app and guide you through the process of cooking.
It’s pretty awesome: a built in sensor and thermometer will track temperature and tell you when to flip or remove food from the heat – so you can cook the perfect steak! As we said in the title – there is no more excuses to not be in the kitchen experimenting with DIY onion rings and churros! View the product here.
