A Pen Mark

“One of the best inventions of mankind is the PEN.” I’m sure this is a statement that anybody will accept without a second thought. Since the ancient Indians, way back in 500 BC or earlier, developed a writing material out of the naturally available bird feathers and bamboo sticks, it has been the most widely used innovation by human race.


Encyclopedia defines a pen (Latin penna, feather) as a device used to apply ink to a surface, usually paper, for writing or drawing . 

But it fails to mention that pen has been the instrument that stood the test of time and prevailed for centuries, undergoing major changes as it itself being the first witness of all the other  scientific innovations.

It evolved much faster than the human race itself from reed pens to quill pens, quill pens to dip pens, dip pens to nib pens, nib pens to fountain pens,  fountain pens to ball point pens, and ball pint to touch pen stylus, Stylus to radiographic pens and many more.

Today we stand not far from the most revolutionary innovation that is  going to stand out.  I welcome you all to witness the scientific marvel when the world shrinks down to the size of a pen and fit in your pocket. (Please see the Video)
