Who use the first typewriter?

The first one was called the "Sholes & Glidden Type Writer," and it was produced by the gunmakers E. Remington & Sons in Ilion, NY from 1874-1878. It was not a great success (not more than 5,000 were sold), but it founded a worldwide industry, and it brought mechanization to dreary, time-consuming office work.

The first "computer" :)  was discover in 1938 by John Atanasov (lived in the USA, but bulgarian :) )

If you don't count the abacus, which is ancient, then Blaise Pascal invented the first mechanical computation machine in France in 1642. Check it yo!\n\nhttp://www.thocp.net/hardware/pascaline.htm

The first computer program ever was a set of instructions punched into cards. \n\nThis kind of programming was used by Charles Babbage on his difference engines. The first reported program was written, or rather punched, by Babbages co-worker Ada Lovelace.\n\nThe first computers in the modern sense were constructed more than a century later by Konrad Zuse. They received their instructions by manually entering the first couple of bytes to initialize the processor and determine which hard-wired operations to perform.\n\nThese instructions were very basic boolean arithmetics - comparison of values, etc.

The history of the alphabet starts in ancient Egypt. By 2700 BCE the Egyptians had developed a set of some 22 hieroglyphs to represent the individual consonants of their language, plus a 23rd that seems to have represented word-initial or word-final vowels. These glyphs were used as pronunciation guides for logograms, to write grammatical inflections, and, later, to transcribe loan words and foreign names.\n\nHowever, although alphabetic in nature, the original Egyptian system was not used for purely alphabetic writing. The first purely alphabetic script is thought to have been developed in central Egypt around 2000 BCE for or by Semitic workers.\n\nOver the next five centuries this Semitic alphabet spread north. All subsequent alphabets around the world have either descended from it, or been inspired by one of its descendants, with the possible exception of the Meroitic alphabet, a 3rd century BCE Nubian adaptation of hieroglyphs.

The QWERTY design was patented by Christopher Sholes in 1868 and sold to Remington in 1873, when it first appeared in typewriters.\n\nFrequently used pairs of letters were separated in an attempt to stop the typebars from intertwining and becoming stuck, thus forcing the typist to manually unstick the typebars and also frequently blotting the document\n\n-The Wikipedia.\n\nThe other common key layout is the DVORAK, though it is not nearly so universal.

Blood typing was an originally invented by the Humphrey typewriter company in 1913. However it was quickly replaced with the standard ink typing that is most common today.

When people first started writing\n\nThe invention of the first writing systems is roughly contemporary with the beginning of the Bronze Age in the late Neolithic of the late 4th millennium BC. The first writing system is generally believed to have been the Sumerian script, which developed into cuneiform. Egyptian hieroglyphs, and the undeciphered Proto-Elamite script and Indus Valley script also date to this era, though a few scholars have questioned the Indus Valley script's status as a writing system.

Charles Babbage is credited as the inventor of the first computer due to the invention of his difference engine machine in 1840.

It still does have two bars, apart from on keyboards - so I guess the answer could well be "when the computer revolution started". As for why, you'd have to ask the keyboard designers, but my guess is that they weren't English!

The first *programmable* computer was made in Germany by Konrad Zuse in the late 1930s and early 1940s. They were electromechanical. \nMost of the machines were destroyed by Allied bombings in WW2, so nothing much became of it. The next "big thing" in computers was vacuum tubes.

believe it or not, it was actually made to be inefficient, so that it took workers longer to type, so they wouldn't wear out the old typewriter machines used by the business\n\nfor whatever reason, that became standard, and personal computers used the same traditional, inefficient layout.  you can actually type in an alternative setup, called dvorak, which was made based on scientific study of common letter sequences, etc, and people can typically type much faster with the dvorak layout than with the standard qwerty setup.\n\nsee http://www.mwbrooks.com/dvorak/ for more info!
