Will I continue to blog?


Will I ever blog again???? Actually I will probably blog once in a while, but will not blog a lot. I will probably check this when ever I have a free time and will decide to write something. Or maybe I will write something on this blog if there is something important going on, or maybe I want to write something on this when I want peoples say on what I am thinking about. Because I like to know what other people's opinion on my thoughts.

DOT com to DOT bomb

The dot com to dot bomb story was during the time when a lot of dot com companies failed and went out of business they made a lot of promises to their customers that they could not deliver. So what happen was the customers decided to go to other companies, and so some companies exceed and gotten more popular, and the most of the companies that did not deliver what ever they said would do, have failed and some went out of business.
I think because of this DOT com to DOT bomb a lot of companies have decided that they should pull through with what they promise their costumers. A lot more companies were more careful with their promises to their customers and were sure that when they make promises, they have to pull through with it. This DOT com to DOT bomb has helped a lot more business improve and get succeed.

Travel Planning in the Web

So a couple months ago my family went to Florida. I dad did his research. He looked up some information online about the different locations you go to at Florida. He also looked up information on where the most affordable nice place we can stay at for a certain amount of days. He also looked up the directions and maps. Lastly he looked up information on the rental cars, and airplane tickets.
I think planning online is one of the best ideas you can do. You can find all the things you need in the internet. From the different locations to hotels to rental cars and airplane tickets. You can plan out your day just by using the internet. Doing your research online you will find when the best day to go to a certain place, and when it is the best weather, it is just great to see all this information online.

MY NERVE RACKING PRESENTATION

Today I presented about the book called The Knowledge of the Web by James Burke. This book The Knowledge of the Web talks about the different connection between the everything that goes around us. One of the most important things that connects to almost everything is technology. Technology connects to politics, education, scientific, and media. This book does not talk about the world wide web, but it talks about the connections, that is why it is called the "web."
In educational the technology is the new way of thinking, it over rides intelligence. The machines that we are taught to use is increasingly taking over the tasks that once occupied a human lifetime.
In media the techonology happens when we use the printing press, and any communications that society can get involve in and get information on.
In politics, the newspaper, computers, internet are very important in the politics world because without the media no one would know anything about what is going on in our government and politician world.
In the scientific world today, we have better technology. The science has expanded for example Botany has become biology, chemistry, histology, embryology, evolutionary biology, physiology.

www."HIS FACE".net

Kevin Freitas, was different from the guy from exit 133. Actually they were kind of the same, but their sites are much more different. What I remember was his site was different from exit 133. Because exit133 talked about the things going on in Tacoma. In Kevin's page it talked about the things that he see's not just in Tacoma, he also has different part of his page when it talks about video games. He loves to take different pictures. And post it on his site, he said so it is memorable to remember. I remember him saying was that both and his wife wakes up in they go straight to the computer and that is when they do their blogs, and check their emails. That is their only time to catch up on emails and blogs. Another thing I remember him talking about is that he NEVER reads. Unless it is an email or something, but other than that he has not read a book for longer than FOREVER.

Online Communities

Online communities... I think I have been involved with different online communities before, for example there was this website called YOUTHGLUE.com, my pastor had a subscription on this site for my youh group, and we would discuss our ideas and what we though in this site. We had our own websites. It was like a myspace. If we were discussing something in our chat place, or forum my pastor would see if our conversations would go over board, and if it crosses the line he would delete this certain topic. Then I had my own XANGA.com it was exactly like how this blogspot worked. We would blog about things and people would read it then comment on it. I had a group of friends that would comment me regularly, but there were some random people that would just check out my site, and say "props to your site." There was no specific rules in xanga on what to not put on your site, but I think you would not be allowed to put up inappropriate pictures. Then I had facebook, it is group of college students who has their own sites, and would comment on it. In your site you usually see where you are from and what school or college you are from. I do not exactly know the things that is going on in facebook because I don't go on in enough to know, what could happen if I do something wrong. Lastly I have myspace, YES myspace.... Everyone has a myspace and I LOVE IT! It is a way for me to communicate and know what is going on in other peoples lives without seeing them. I comment and look at pictures. In myspace, Tom makes sure that no one is putting up inapprooriate pictures and would delete your account if you do have some.

Scavenger Hunt

This is what I have so far

I have found the first one I just had to search up his name on google and digital hollywood. The second one took me forever to find, I had to work on it with Daniel. The third one was a little complicating it took some time to get all the information together then finally find the price. As for ther others from 4-7 it did not take that long to find the information I just had to google it.



That is how much I have gone so far, Daniel helped me look through somethings, and I was not there the day we did it in class.
