"When you hear the word ‘document’ you might not get all that excited. Maybe you think about filing paperwork, taxes, or important documents you’re scared to lose like your birth certificate. But really… Documents can change the world. That’s right. With just ink and a few, or many pages, the entire world can be impacted.
You might think because WD specializes in document storage they might be biased but these illustrations prove their point. Below are six of the world’s most famous documents so you can see just how a document can make the world a different place. After all, try to imagine a modern world without The Declaration of Independence? Or what would have happened without The Magna Carta?".

The Gutenberg Bible, 1455, Germany
Joana Jana 3 years ago
Ah yes, "Social Media Knowledge". Gutenberg didn't invent the first printing press, printing presses existed in China, Babylon and even Rome. It's not like until 1400 every book was written by hand, and suddenly, boom, on January 1st, 1400, printing presses appeared everywhere. Gutenberg was responsible for the printing press with *movable letters* and was lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time to be acknowledged as the inventor of something, he improved remarkably.
