Its cool that people actually prepare such surveys though I don't always agree with the results. Consider the winner of this survey. It was the Ares 1 rocket developed by NASA, an over-funded US government bureaucracy. Even the technology drew its inspiration from WWII, which makes me think, its been a long time coming.
Call it national pride, but I like the Aussie invention of the tuna breeding system. It was ranked 2nd by Time, and 15th by the people. The grandness of this technology is that many people have tried to do it, and concluded that it could not be done. It is also special because it will avoid over-fishing of natural fish species. Basically recreational fishermen around the world might once again be able to enter the seas without paying huge license fees.
I like the fact that it solves a big problem - over fishing. Also think of the jobs it will create in Australia, NZ, Argentina and South Africa. Anyway view the complete list of the technologies at Time.
