General topic

There are a few topics I would like to report it to this class. One of the favorite things about technology is how it is evolving and helping people, which can lead to good and bad consequences. As time progresses there are different types of technology such as technology used in companies, industries, educational system, financial, communication, health, and food industry. These are some of the ways that I can think of on how technology is being used. It is fascinating to know about all these but at the same time, it raises concerns in different fields of areas. What technology has to offer now since it has already been this advance? Is technology is gonna reach a tipping point? What would our world be without wifi or Internet? And the main how can we differentiate what is technology and what is not? Will the Internet make humans smarter or dumber? In today's society technology is used almost everywhere from our bathroom to the president's desk. Everywhere you see it is there. The question where can you not find it. There are different programs which support the function in our devices to work. It is interesting to know how a small thing can control your living style. I really became concerned when our professor showed us a video that explained that "the machine is using us" and I was like I knew that and one day they will be controlling us, well that is my theory. And this also reminded me of a movie I watched and somehow connected it.

Journalism

Where is Journalism going?

Our great grandparents or grandparents might remember getting a newspaper at the front of their porch. Newspapers were source of information at that time and a way to connect to outer world, learning about what is happening around them. When prints were only way to get the news it was a really good business to do. It was really slow to receive the news but it was more accurate. Since everything was being printed there was more jobs available and for different positions open and different job description. More newspaper meant more people at work. Business was doing great and workers had job but as our technology started to advance and during 1920s radio and television were introduced which made people buy these but newspaper was still there but the use of it went down. Consumers were interested in these because news were faster compared to the newspaper, these new form of technology did long distance coverage, and these two technologies brought new aspects to journalism. This also made lots of people loose their jobs in the printing area but it also creates more jobs in technological field which majority of them might not be familiar with. Nowadays, we have mobile devices which includes lots of apps and helps other to communicate with each other better and faster. There are lots of apps such as Facebook, Instagram, twitter and others which allows to receive their news at the moment, which puts the area of journalism low. There is a problem with this kind of advancement because the news might not be reliable. Many people working in the journalism field are also heavily dependent on a technology and maybe it's a evolution. In the journalism field people lean more towards entertainment departments rather than focusing on news because of people's area of interest. Journalism has changed according to the needs of people and what they want. 

Numbers and palabras

Our class was assigned to make a HTML file. I did to but the process was not that hard as expected. It is pretty easy to make a HTML file. For those people who does not know HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup language. Moving on I also made a file which at first I planned on putting on some pictures on my file. I looked up on how to put images in the file and I followed through the steps too, which I did and I published the page but the image was not showing up. I kept trying and I also tried changing the images and putting it in the correct formatting but as soon I published it it did not showed up. Then I gave up on this idea. Next I tried to put the marquee which I thought was amazing. Since this in being in our today's society mostly for advertising or spreading news. I tried that and it worked. I did all the title and body also the ending. I wanted to be fancy a little bit so, I tried to put different symbols in it. I looked up what are the symbols and numbers used to make it appear like that and I found it fascinating that there is certain way to write and if you make a single mistake then it's not gonna appear as you want. So, I tried one with spades and a hot spring. After the work I was like why is it showing just two symbols when I wrote that many words. I also kept in mind that there are gonna be some words that are not gonna be visible when we publish and before starting anything you need to end it with correct format otherwise it's not gonna work. I really enjoyed it even though it was too much work for just some few words.

Expectations

What do I want out of this course?

Well, this class is interesting and there were things we discussed today that I am not familiar with. The things I would like to take away from this class is that i want to know how technology has evolved over time? or What should we expect our upcoming days to be like? More importantly, I want learn about side effects digital technology has on humans.
There are lots of things that I want to Know because I am not that familiar with the technological process or way of it's working. Technology has been advancing really fast which is changing the lifestyle and how we do our things. Are humans gonna relay on machines so much that they are give forget their on abilities. As we can see on out today's society people post their information so much as they forget they have a life outside of this. If you are not in any social media account then you do not exist. Is it gonna change or people will be too dependent on these? Even our educational are teaching kids to use electronic device at an early age which in m opinion is gonna slow the ability of the kids to grow their brain because they will be connected to the device they are using. But this does not guarante they will know stuff about world outside of them. So how much affect does technology can have on our cognitive skills. As compare to our past most of our devices heavy, big but today's its small, light. Even their screen in getting smaller which gives high content but what is the use of it. Is technology evolution good or bad? Can having technology can eliminate that in future humans are not required to control them and will they be able to operate on their own? Let's forget about that, but what about money they all are numbers in the computers?

Rabbit vs.Turtle

There are many similarities and differences between Email and Mail. Some similarities might be that it allows you to communicate with others, no matter how far they are from each other. They both need addresses to send the information but the only difference is on postal mail you need the physical address of the person and can only access it from home. It is different on electronic mails they can be accessed from anywhere on your device as long as you have a internet connection and a device. The formatting of the letters are similar also can be said that email evolved from the way we write letters but in a faster version. Both of them have a meaning to get across to the other party. Email is cheap and faster method of communication while for mail you need stamp, go the postal office and pay for it. One bad thing about email is that you can get virus very fast and privacy becomes really big issue. While mail is more secure compare to email and less spam. But mail takes more time to reach the destination.

Email works totally different compare to mail because it's really easy to handle just write a letter, send it to where u want to it to be sent. On the other hand Email you need to compose the letter, with correct email address otherwise it will sent to some other person. You need a internet connection to send it and the person receiving it needs it too see it.
