Today 1/31/11

Well today i basically just worked on the assignments that were listed on the multi medias blog and it was pretty cool. i didn't have time to read  an article an write about it but the rest of the assignments i finished them on time.The fist assignment was about the survey i did that last class period so i had already finished one. The second thing that was on the assignment was he picture and the 11 whigs we had to label i liked the picture :) . The fourth assignment was to write about Cooliris, i actually enjoyed that program it was pretty entertaining and well just fun i guess its like a website to search for images i think and it works good it has a lot of color if you want it to have color and it also has different little things like how many rows you want it to have and what effects you want it to have. The last task i didn't get to do it because i didn't have time but i would have liked to learn a little more about technology.

4th assignment 1/31/11

I think this program is just another search engine with a flashy appearance and how they put it i think it was just to bring more people to its website so people wont be bored while they search for what they want and be entertained.

3rd assignment 1/31/11

 Google Docs
Is an easy-to-use online word processor, spreadsheet and presentation editor that enables teachers and students to create, store and share instantly and securely, and collaborate online in real time. You can create new documents from scratch or upload existing documents, spreadsheets and presentations. There's no software to download, and all your work is stored safely online and can be accessed from any computer. Some of the features are:
1) Online Availability: 2.) Less Spacia3.) Data Availability:4.) Share Your Work: 5.) Its Free 6.)Able to communicate better. 1) Formatting: Formatting can be a challenge, especially if documents are moved back and forth between Word & Google Docs.2)Bullets: Another disadvantages is that when it come to bullet points like when we are  creating a list like for an outline it doesn’t really come with that feature of bullets.3)Fonts: It doesn’t have a whole lot of fonts it had just the basic that almost every program has.Well even though we already have this program in school students still don't use it i think they should use it because first of all its free second it allows to communicate with your teachers and any other student like is you are collaborating with them they can easily get on and start to work on anything.

Today 1/18/11

Well today was a different kind of day well just because we  came in class and had an assignment that we had to read and then talk about in the blog like what we learned  about it an if we agree with what the article is saying, and well after i read the article i started to work on my power point witch I'm almost done with it all i need to do is to add pictures and finish two slides hopefully by next class period i finish it.

The Article

The Article "We Have Met the Enemy and He is Power point" is manly talking about how some people use it as a different thing like in the opinion of the Mc Master there was a whole different point of view to him he said "Its dangerous because it can create the illusion of understanding and the illusion of control General Mc master also said that Some problems in the world are not bullet-izable" . So basically is that it's  not good to use the power pints because it brings the troops thinking they have power in creating a power point. It also creates more problems in the wars because of the lack of information that they added on the power points and that is why he does not want the power points and describes the power points as enemies. But this is not saying that the wars problem is the power points.But over all the Programs does come in handy when the goal os not imparting information,as in briefing for reporters.And How they blame the power point for there mistakes and in my opinion i don't think the blame is on the power point its on the people that create it because a power point can be  very informative,but again that all depends on the one that creates it so i don't think that power points are to be blamed.

Today 1/14/11

Well today all i basically did was just getting information about my topic google docs an it was really interesting an well very help full  for me an all i have to do know is write the info in my own words an make my presentation good :)

In class today

Today i mainly worked on the power point that we where suppose  to do i'm working with keynote and it was ok its the same as the one on the hp computers but this one is like more there or you like for lazy people that want it there when they look for something in it.  also researched some things from google docs using google so its really good google docs so i know i need to find more information for the slides.

The issues with the power point.

Some problems or issues of a power point is that the person that is making the power point gets too creative and decorates to much that forgets about the  real information that has to inform the readers another thing is that sometimes  the creator of the power point adds too much information that is way too long to read it an it takes like way too much i think that people should avoid that because it would just get a person very boring.Another thing is the way that the creator puts in the color like say a black background and uses like a dark gray color for the letters now thats kind of dumb but people will do that.And those are just some of the issue in a powerpoint are.

so today all i basically did  the assignment from today an  know that i have to present i also learned what a web 2.0 tools is.

The reason i picked google docs is because it is very common to the students its very use full and for the teachers this is a great thing to use when the students want to communicate with each other.
According to wikiipideia.com A web 2.0 tool is  is commonly associated with web applications that facilitate interactive systemic biases, interoperability, user-centered design,^[1] and developingthe World Wide Web. 
also another thingp i would chose i myspace because it is so much more than a social network .
