The 7 world wonders of the tech world is compiled by Erick Jensen. Topping the list is the Googleplex, the Google headquarter in Mountain View, California.

Heres the list:

1. Googleplex
2. Industrial Light & Magic (ILM)
3. International Space Station (ISS)
4. Apple’s Retail Opus
5. Fremont Street Experience (sound!)
6. Hubble Space Telescope
7. Kryptos

But the said list is debatable.

Do you think they missed out anything lets compile our paralell list here @ thinkdigit!

Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope(india)

Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT), located near Pune in India, is the world's largest radio telescope at metre wavelengths. It is operated by the National Centre for Radio Astrophysics, a part of the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Bombay.
There are fourteen telescopes randomly arranged in the central square, with a further sixteen arranged in three arms of a "Y"-shaped array (similar to the VLA) giving an interferometric baseline of about 25 km. The GMRT is an interferometer which uses a technique known as aperture synthesis to make images of radio sources.
