The pace of innovation has slowed in the 21st century.

Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)


False

As the adage goes, change is the only constant-and the rate of technological change has accelerated dramatically over the past hundred years. One determinant is that initial innovations such as the car, airplane, telephone, and the use of electricity provided the necessary infrastructure for newer innovations to diffuse more rapidly. Another reason is the emergence of new business models that make innovations more accessible. The speed of technology diffusion has accelerated further with the emergence of the internet, social networking sites, and viral messaging.
