The impact of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
I feel like the impact of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy is enormous. From Google(plex) to the Babel Fish, many of the technological advances listed in the book have come to pass. It is though the author was a time traveler and kept excellent notes. As the initial author of a book that is designed to be added to over time, he did an impressive job, but those who have followed have added to our world’s cognition, technologically speaking. The man knew where his towel was.
Knowing Where Your Towel Is
Knowing where your towel is has been taken directly out of the book, The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. It means to be prepared to adapt rapidly to a new environment or situation. Someone who travels with a towel shows that they are an experienced traveler as towels can be used for many purposes. Dry off, clean up sweat, wrap up breakable objects, or warm yourself with it, towel is infinitely useful. Do you know where your towel is?
