    July 9, 1981 - Donkey Kong and Mario’s Birthday 

    The game that launched two of the most famous characters in video game history is released for sale. Donkey Kong was created by Nintendo, a Japanese playing card and toy company turned fledgling video game developer, trying to create a hit game for the North American market. Unable at the time to acquire a license to create a video game based on the Popeye character, Nintendo decides to create a game mirroring the characteristics and rivalry of Popeye and Bluto. Donkey Kong is named after the game’s villain, a pet gorilla gone rogue. The game’s hero is called initially Jumpman but is retroactively renamed Mario once the game becomes popular and Nintendo decides to use the character in future games.

    June 27, 1972 - ATARI Celebrates 50 Years 

    The iconic video game company, Atari, is founded by Nolan Bushnell and Ted Dabney. Their first video game, Pong, was the first commercially successful video game and led to the start of the video game industry. In 1977, Atari’s Video Computer System (known as the VCS and later the Atari 2600) popularized the home video game market. Before the video game crash of 1983, Atari was the fastest-growing company in the history of the United States at the time, and the brand was synonymous with video games.

    June 23, 1878 – The QWERTY Typewriter is Patented

    The Sholes and Glidden typewriter, the first practical and commercially successful typewriter, is patented. Perhaps most notable in the design of the Sholes and Glidden (which would later become the Remington No. 1 typewriter) is the use of the QWERTY keyboard, (named for the letters appearing in the upper left) which is still the most popular keyboard layout in the world.

    By the mid-1880s, forces were converging to create a larger market for typewriting machines. Firms were hiring specialized employees to handle growing volumes of correspondence; combined with changes to accounting practices, it became increasingly worthwhile for businesses to purchase typewriters. 

    Training schools, which especially taught women, started to spring up across the United States, Europe, Australia, and elsewhere starting in the early 1880s. As typing became standard, employment boomed for typists, clerks, bookkeepers, and accountants. But even as the typewriter opened new avenues to employment, it did not create conditions for equality of opportunity as typing became recast as "women's work."

    June 11, 1978, Texas Instruments Inc. introduces the Speak and Spell

    The Speak & Spell, a talking educational toy featured the first electronic duplication of the human voice on a single chip of silicon. It transformed digital information processed through a filter into synthetic speech and could store more than 100 seconds of linguistic sounds.

    The Speak & Spell was created by a small team of engineers led by Paul Breedlove, himself an engineer, with Texas Instruments (TI) during the late 1970s. Development began in 1976 with an initial budget of $25,000, as an outgrowth of TI's research into speech synthesis. The completed proof version of the first console utilized TI's trademarked Solid State Speech technology to store full words in a solid state format similar to the manner in which calculators of the time stored numbers.

It becomes an instant hit, especially among college students. Just over 6 months later, on December 7, 1999, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) will file a lawsuit against the service, alleging mass copyright infringement. Eventually, this lawsuit will force the shutdown of the company on September 3, 2002, but not before the popularity of downloading digital music is firmly entrenched in a generation of Internet users.

    May 14, 1973

    The United States launched Skylab One, its first human-crewed space station. It was the last launch of the Saturn five rocket and the largest payload ever launched into space at the time. Skylab will fall back into the Earth’s atmosphere in July of 1979.

    Skylab was the first United States space station launched by NASA and occupied for about 24 weeks between May 1973 and February 1974. It was operated by three-astronaut crews, each with three members: Skylab 2, Skylab 3, and Skylab 4. The operations included an orbital workshop, a solar observatory, Earth observation, and hundreds of experiments.
