Let's Play 'History As A List' →
This would make an awesome social studies or history lesson!
It’s a short history of “Frontiers” — territories that he says have challenged humans over the centuries, arranged in roughly chronological order. Drew calls it “Frontiers Through The Ages.”
- Water, 1400
- Land, 1840
- Gold, 1850
- Wire, 1880
- Air, 1900
- Celluloid, 1920
- Plastic, 1950
- Space, 1960
- Silicon, 1980
- Networks, 1990
- Data, 2000
I know, I know, it’s much too American and very arbitrary (Christopher Columbus didn’t exactly “open” the oceans for exploration; Egyptian sailors, Minoans, Phoenicians did that, and much earlier), but still, Drew is playing a game here that’s fun, if you keep at it.
