tools

Tools are an important part of our everyday lives.  They have evolved over time to allow us to work smart and not hard.

A carpenter uses tools such as screwdrivers, hammers, and saws. A software engineer may use tools such as Google Analytics to measure the traffic to a website. 


Tools allow us to accomplish things that are beyond what we can do with our bare hands. Learning to find the right tool for the job is typically half the battle,  but blogs like Lifehacker have shown interesting and creative ways to DIY. Tools to accomplish mechanical tasks like working on cars require the owner to learn about the task before beginning the project. The tools they use to learn about the task may include online resources about car repair consisting of blog posts and videos as well as technical articles.
