In the true meaning, information technology is anything (from a paper form to a cell phone or computer) that allows people to organize and share information.\n\nIt is the media that we use to store and communicate ideas.\n\nIn the usual meaning, it refers to electronic devices that do the above.  In this instance the organization of information can be quite advanced and includes the ability to search and otherwise process information.\n\nThe detailed part of your question sounds like a homework question.  You should be able to imagine how writing implements first changed the world and how cell phones and computing is currently doing so.

Information Technology (IT) or Information and Communication(s) Technology (ICT) is a broad subject concerned with technology and other aspects of managing and processing information, especially in large organizations.\n\nIn particular, IT deals with the use of electronic computers and computer software to convert, store, protect, process, transmit, and retrieve information. For that reason, computer professionals are often called IT specialists, and the division of a company or university that deals with software technology is often called the IT department. Other names for the latter are Information Services (IS) or Management Information Services (MIS).

Electronic data processing (also: Information Technology or IT) can refer to the use of automated methods to process commercial data. Typically, this uses relatively simple, repetitive activities to process large volumes of similar information. For example: stock updates applied to an inventory, banking transactions applied to account and customer master files, booking and ticketing transactions to an airline's reservation system, billing for utility services.\n\nToday\nAs with other industrial processes commercial IT has moved in all respects from a bespoke, craft-based industry where the product was tailored to fit the customer; to multi-use components taken off the shelf to find the best-fit in any situation. Mass-production has greatly reduced costs and IT is available to the smallest company or one-man band - or school-kid.\n\nLEO was hardware tailored for a single client. Today, Intel Pentium and compatible chips are standard and become parts of other components which are combined as needed. One individual change of note was the freeing of computers and removable storage from protected, air-filtered environments. Microsoft and IBM at various times have been influential enough to impose order on IT and the resultant standardisations allowed specialist software to flourish.\n\nSoftware is available off the shelf: apart from Microsoft products such as Office, or Lotus, there are also specialist packages for payroll and personnel management, account maintenance and customer management, to name a few. These are highly specialised and intricate components of larger environments, but they rely upon common conventions and interfaces.\n\nData storage has also standardised. Relational databases are developed by different suppliers to common formats and conventions. Common file formats can be shared by large main-frames and desk-top personal computers, allowing online, realtime input and validation.\n\nIn parallel, software development has fragmented. There are still specialist technicians, but these increasingly use standardised methodologies where outcomes are predictable and accessible. At the other end of the scale, any office manager can dabble in spreadsheets or databases and obtain acceptable results (but there are risks).\n\nRetrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_data_processing"
