Well, it was to receive his own broadcast so I guess it would be Channel Logie-Baird or Channel 1.  There was only one program and as that was a still picture of a ventriloquist's dummy I guess it made pretty poor entertainment.

he did not invent electric light\n\nThe first electric light was made in 1800 by Humphry Davy, an English scientist. He experimented with electricity and invented an electric battery. When he connected wires to his battery and a piece of carbon, the carbon glowed, producing light. This is called an electric arc.\n\nMuch later, in 1860, the English physicist Sir Joseph Wilson Swan (1828-1914) was determined to devise a practical, long-lasting electric light. He found that a carbon paper filament worked well, but burned up quickly. In 1878, he demonstrated his new electric lamps in Newcastle, England.\n\nIn 1877, the American Charles Francis Brush manufactured some carbon arcs to light a public square in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. These arcs were used on a few streets, in a few large office buildings, and even some stores. Electric lights were only used by a few people.

Kinda\n\nPhilo Farnsworth invented the Cathode Ray Tube and Image Dissector, which, combined, made for the first wireless picture transmission.  He did so in the late 20s (culminating around '30) at his research lab at 303 Green Street in San Francisco.

I have to say television and radio are the best inventions, because they've entertained us, made us cry, laugh and be happy. They keep us informed. They educate us to many things that go on in the world. "Remarkable."

In the living room I have to agree with you about being on the computer and watching t.v at the same time. It's funny when someone changes the channel when your on the computer and you say " I was watching that" lol.

Thomas Alva Edison (February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman who developed many devices which greatly influenced life in the 20th century. Dubbed "The Wizard of Menlo Park" by a newspaper reporter, he was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production to the process of invention, and can therefore be credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory. Some of the inventions credited to him were not completely original, but alterations of earlier patents (most famously the light bulb), or were actually the work of his numerous employees. Nevertheless, Edison is considered one of the most prolific inventors in history, holding 1,097 U.S. patents in his name, as well as many patents in the United Kingdom, France, and Germany.

No one invented electricity. It was discovered.\n\ntosmith

Nobody invented electricity - it is a naturally occuring phenomenon (for example - lightning) that has been around as long as Earth. Benjamin Franklin is often credited with discovering the properties of electricity (although this is probably a myth), and Thomas Edison invented the electric light.

Yes. Nikola Tesla actually invented the radio, but Marconi took (and still gets) credit for it.
