	<htmltext>I don't think that the title is correct according to the applications mentioned in the article. I believe that the word change is a too much to use it.

That was my thought exactly.  <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killer\_application#Examples" title="wikipedia.org" rel="nofollow">Wikipedia</a> [wikipedia.org] even lists VisiCalc as the first "killer app".  Way before there was photoshop keeping the Mac platform alive (which they mention), there was VisiCalc doing the exact same thing.
<br> <br>
I'm also surpised left PS/PDF off the list.  While it isn't necessarily an "app" per se, it is probably the most important development in computer publishing/printing.  More so than Photoshop and Quark, which makes their stupid list.</htmltext>

Seven years ago, Meteor, my operator, introduced free Meteor-Meteor Calls and Texts.
This instigated a period of huge amounts of texting between myself and friends.
Taking a small group of two dozen of my friends and acquaintances, I would estimate that hundreds of thousands of texts have been sent among us over this period.
Relationships have been made and broken over SMS, and not one of us would disagree that SMS has been the most influential technology out of this list.</sentencetext>

	<htmltext>grrrr... don't ever mention Pagemaker to me!

In my previous job, we had to write up pdf's using Pagemaker and it was just the most horrendous program I've used since WinME! It used to hog resources like a fat person with cake, copy and pasting images was a big no no unless you wanted to risk corrupt pdf's... in fact, it randomly used to just not pdf properly for no reason!

I tried telling the bosses to let us use anything but Pagemaker... use Publisher or something else newer that was much easier and quicker to use but they wouldn't have any of it as there were a lot of files that would need updating.

On the plus side, I used to have 10minute breaks whilst it tried pdf'ing a 50page document, unfortunately the only girls to chat up to were old enough to be my grandmother - and you're one sick puppy if you make a comment about that... else I've not succumbed to the average level of desperation on Slashdot!<nobr> <wbr></nobr>:p</htmltext>

	<htmltext>I don't know that those changed my world so much.  They may have been killer apps or billion-dollar industries, but my life has been changed by more simple, fundamental things:
<br> <br>
1. GW-BASIC.  When I discovered that the games I was already playing were right there for me to tinker with, an entire new world was opened to me.  From there, I wanted to do more and more, and ended up learning about C and C++, compilers, etc.  GW-BASIC was the program that opened the door into the world of programming for me.
<br> <br>
2. Compuserve.  That was the dial-up service that we found when I was young.  The time on it was so very limited due to long distance fees, but the information that suddenly became available was a real eye-opener.  My internet addiction started before Compuserve gave me internet access.
<br> <br>
3. IRC.  Once I was really on the internet, I could get all sorts of information by browsing through Yahoo's categories.  But what connected me to the world was IRC.  I was using IRC for a long time before ICQ came around and started the instant messenger craze.  I even held off on getting an ICQ account for long enough that I got an ID in the 500,000 range, because I didn't see the point of it.  After all, I had IRC.  At any rate, IRC was how I connected to the outside world.  Until I discovered MUSHing, my interaction with people from around the world, exposing me to ideas and conversations I may never have had in my corner of the world, was through IRC.
<br> <br>
And that's really it.  Everything else has, for me, been incremental or within one of those paradigms.  (1) Control and program the computer.  (2) Access information with the computer.  (3) Communicate instantaneously with others using the computer.  Producing documents was what the computer was all about, and since I grew up with them more or less around it has never surprised me or opened new doors for me to be able to edit images, put them into documents, or the like.  That was just a logical extension of being able to type a document with XyWrite back in the day.</htmltext>

	<htmltext>I had a similar experience at a mall when I was a kid, in a Sears I think. There had been computers on the shelves of Radio Shacks and electronics stores like "Crazy" Eddies (showing my age) for years. But those machines drew about as much attention as a typewriter. The Macintosh displayed the Mona Lisa created in MacPaint, and people gathered around it in amazement. It may not have been a significant application in business or entertainment, but it demonstrated everything revolutionary about personal computers like no other application. Users saw pictures instead of monochromatic words, the program was controlled without a keyboard, windows and icons made it seem intuitive and approachable, unlike cryptic text commands.
<br> <br>
For everyday people in the suburbs, it was a glimpse of the computing experience that would become ubiquitous in the next 10-15 years. The people crowded around weren't awed by the pictures on the screen, they were amazed by how powerful home computers were becoming. They studied me and my friends playing around, looking for clues to what exactly we could do with it.
<br> <br>
Frankly, it was a profound experience. Those machines soon replaced bank tellers with computer screens, letters with email, encyclopedias with Google, and on and on. For a lot of us in middle-America, that possibility first dawned on us when we saw MacPaint 25 years ago.</htmltext>

	<htmltext>I used to sell Macs in '84. I once gave a demo to a group of guys that came in from CERN. I showed them Mac Paint and Mac Write, I copied and pasted between the two apps and they were fascinated. At one point someone asked about the price and I quoted the price in French Francs. Someone asked what that was in Swiss Francs, and one of them had a watch with a built in calculator so he spoke up and asked for the conversion rate. Meanwhile, I pulled down the apple menu and brought up the calculator and typed in the same numbers. I cut the converted price and posted it in the Mac Write document I was typing. The guy with the watch calculator was frozen staring at the Mac. So was the rest of the group. I found out after the demo that they were part of the UA1 team that had just won the nobel prize in physics. Just a simple calculator that could easily integrate with other apps left them completely speechless.
Today an application that doesn't support infinite undo is not worthy of a second look, but back then the notion of a GUI, with [limited] multi-tasking, was amazing even to guys who had access to most advanced technology.</htmltext>
