Some products of technology have a good run -- they've got "legs," so to speak. Others that seemed cutting edge at the time, however, have had a surprisingly short shelf life. Take, for example, those vintage vibrating exercise belts that were supposed to make fat shake right off your body.
Or the wobbly, one-wheeled motorcycle invented in 1931 by Italian M. Goventosa de Udine. Here we present 10 uses of technology that seem destined to have a long life ahead of them, providing plenty of opportunity for businesses that support or rely on these technologies.

1.Wind Farming
Though wind farming isn't widespread, the technology has an energetic future ahead of it. In short, a wind farm is a series of closely located wind turbines that generate electricity for the surrounding area. Because they require only renewable energy -- the wind -- and have a relatively small effect on the environment, expect wind-harnessing technology to thrive well into the future.2.Flying
While the future may not include gas-guzzling airplanes akin to the jets we use today, you can bet that air travel will always exist. Airplanes and helicopters allow humans to travel quickly, efficiently and relatively inexpensively, a modern luxury that people won't soon give up.While the future may not include gas-guzzling airplanes akin to the jets we use today, you can bet that air travel will always exist.

3.Internet
The Internet's origin can be traced back to a 1969 Defense Department project, according to a Lincoln University article. It was finessed in the '80s, and in the '90s was made widely available to the public. Though an infant invention on the Earth's grand timeline, the Internet is undoubtedly a game changer that has a long life ahead of it.4.Image Capture
Humans have long recorded events visually -- from primitive scribbles on rock to beautiful paintings. Eventually, the invention of still-picture cameras and later moving images documented and relayed historic events and personal memories. From film to digital technology, cameras will certainly evolve as time marches on, but odds are good that they will exist for as long as humans live.5.Water Purification
Though a vast portion of the Earth is covered in the water -- 96 percent, according to the U.S. Geographical Survey -- only a tiny amount is drinkable. Since 1500 B.C., humans have used various water filtering and purification systems to ensure water is neither salty nor contaminated. The challenges of a growing global population and limited fresh water supply ensures a perpetual need for water treatment.6.Telecommunication
Like most inventions, instant communication devices have rapidly changed over the years. Comparably unsophisticated inventions such as Morse Code have led to advanced technologies that allow us to talk -- sometimes face to face -- with another person across the city or across the world. Some form of phone technology that allows talking across a distance is likely to always exist.7.Microscopy
The forerunner to today's modern microscope was invented around the 1600s by Netherland residents Hans and Zacharias Jansen, according to EDInformatics. This 400-year-old technology paved the way for future inventions and discoveries through magnification that have greatly changed the world. Studying things smaller than the naked human eye can see is a necessity in many fields -- including biology and chemistry -- making this invention a keeper.

very very nice article .fantastic site this. really can spend sometime regularly
These are genuinely impressive ideas in about blogging.
You have touched some fastidious factors here.
Any way keep up wrinting.
Review my weblog Reviews on Get Rid of Herpes - ,
I seldom leave comments, but after looking at a few
of the remarks on this page "10 Technologies That Won't Die".
I actually do have a couple of questions for you if it's allright.
Could it be simply me or does it look like a few of the responses come across as
if they are written by brain dead visitors? :-P And, if you are posting
at additional social sites, I would like to follow you.
Could you post a list of every one of your shared pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
