Google hosts one of the best doodle to honour Gideon Sundback "The Zipper Man"

digitfreak 00064Google is now hosting one of the best Doodle to celebrate the biggest invention of the history which changed the style of living and taken some stress off of us while changing clothes.

Gideon Sundback (April 24, 1880 – June 21, 1954) was a Swedish-American electrical engineer. Gideon Sundbäck is most commonly associated with his work in the development of the zipper.

Working as an engineer for the Universal Fastener Company in Hoboken New Jersey, Sundback perfected the old idea of a fastener based on interlocking teeth.

His “Hookless No. 2″ invention was essentially the modern metal zipper, with each tooth having a dimple on the bottom and a nib on the top, which made the zipper strong enough for everyday use. Sundback patented his invention in 1917.
