Today marks the eighth birthday of the ever-evolving iPod. Only eight years and already the gadget has landed itself in a London Science Museum, naming it an “icon of 21st century technology.”

Twitter users all over the world reacted to the news. Some users also offered celebratory tweets in honor of their beloved iPods.

Joe Weiss, the man who chose to donate the iPod rather than selling it on eBay, says since he has an iPhone now, he feels OK to have parted with the original. “It makes me happy that it will be preserved in the Museum forever,” he told Cult of Mac.

Weiss isn’t the only one to have moved on to bigger and better things since the birth of the iPod.
