I can't choose just one, so:

The printing press
The wheel
The telegraph
The integrated circuit
The birth control pill (Greatest invention of the 20th Century)

If you look at it, most of what we have comes from those. Right now I'm typing on a whole bunch of integrated circuits attached to a really fast telegraph.
