Social Media

Social media is what people use to chat with their friends, share pictures, share videos and fun quotes of what they been doing lately. The only social networking sites that I use is Facebook and Blogger. I prefer using Facebook because most of my friends use Facebook to chat, share pictures and I used Facebook for a couple of years. Blogger is still new to me, this is the first time I used Blogger, and there are still a lot of things that I do not know how to use in Blogger. Twitter is one of the other one that some of my friends use but I do not know how to use this one. Twitter is just like Myspace and Blogger. People can comment on other friends quotes or statues. In "Professor Encourages Students to Pass Notes During Class - via Twitter", is one example to see that even professor are using twitter to teach. Twitter lets all the student's good ideas to be read and to be shared.

World Wide Web


The World Wide Web will be soon being depending on this one program. People would not have to go out to do anything because of the program they have. In the article “The Windy City Teams with Microsoft on Cloud Strategy”, there is a new program that will deal with a lot more than the last program.  It will have most of what people will need mostly every day. An advantage will be having more employees to work on this program, and everything will be convenient because all the things you need, will be in this one program. A disadvantage of this program will be not able to a thing if they don’t have this program, and they will rely on this program to do everything. ‘The cloud’ is an online hard drive. Without ‘the cloud’, people will not be able to save their important information online. People would rely on ‘the cloud’ to save all their documents. If there was no electricity, internet or ‘the cloud’ then people would not have anything to show on a different computer compared to people who have documents on paper which would be available at the present time.

Networks and Communication


Technology is everyday use. People of any ages will use technologies like computers, cell phones, tablets, and etc. They would use the technology to communicate with people from close or far. Some advantages of having technology like email, text, Instant Messenger, Skype since these were made for people so they can talk to other people from far away like United States calling to China using Skype. People can just text a few words and they will not have to waste phone calls. They can send documents or anything to someone with email instead of bringing a lot of documents to them; people can send pictures to their friends or families to share instead of waiting until the pictures are printed and text can say something that they cannot say when they are facing the person. Some disadvantages of having technology are people will become shy and unable to talk to people face to face, people's health will get bad because their eyes will get bad and people will gain more weights because they would stay at home and text friends instead of hanging out with them and go walk out, and texting will distract people from doing other things. Texting people will harm themselves just like in this article "Texting woman falls  in fountain, files lawsuit", people will get distracted due to texting instead of looking at what is around them. I think people who are driving should try to park somewhere to answer their text before anything bad happens, or people should ad block to their spam.
