Armed with shopping bag and credit card, consumers applauded the release of the first iPod in 2001. With 5 GBs of storage and the slogan “1,000 songs in your pocket”, the iPod quickly became an overnight success. Now different versions can hold up to 160 GBs and 40,000 songs. An HD color screen replaced the orighinal black and white screen.
I spent part of last Saturday setting up for Christmas. After going through the tough part of getting the tree and carrying it up a cramped flight of stairs it was time to decorate it. This meant getting the bags, totes, and ornament boxes upstairs as well. My mother buys a new ornament every year and seemingly has done so forever. Her ornaments date back to the ’50s and spend the majority of their time stored in her basement covered in tissue paper.
We recently learned here at Intercept, that the world’s oldest living creature was an Ocean Quahog, named Ming. It was found near Iceland and was determined to be 507 years old.
It was born just after Columbus first crossed the Atlantic and lived to have seen many great changes in its life.
From 1751 to 1994 the oceans are believed to have gotten 30% more acidic and over the past 25 years 12% more acidic. So how is this related to Intercept Technology™ you ask?
