Edison Invention


Although Edison had over a thousand patents, there is one invention of his that we would be lost without today.  The light bulb offers steady and bright light without much worry or danger of a fire that a candle would give.  Thomas Edison invented with revolutionary invention in 1879.  I feel as though our of all of Edison's amazing inventions, this one affected people the most, they could see after the sun set without having to worry about it starting a fire.  We still use this invention today and we have modernized it.  Today there are light bulbs in electronic picture frames, in televisions, in computers, everywhere.
