3 Goals for This Semester

One personal goal I have for this semester is to pay closer attention in all my classes so I learn more.

A goal I have for school is to be more organized. I lose a lot of papers and stuff in my backpack and then I don't get credit because I can't find it even when I did the assignment.

My information technology goal is to work faster and harder so if we do another assignment like the pasta divine one then I can finish it. I didn't get to finish it because I kept running into problems so yeah.

What is the benefit of easily connecting to people and information?

The benefit is you can easily connect to people and information easily. Back a long time ago it would take weeks or months to contact people that weren't nearby. Now it takes seconds with very little effort. The only thing that could be done for contacting people that were far away was by writing letters.  Today we have email, social networking sites, phones for calling and text messaging, and a bunch of other tools on the internet.

What Kind of Application I Would Make

If I could make an application, I would probably make a game. I think it would be intense and games sell pretty well so I could make a bit of money off it. If I didn't make a game I would probably make some sort of tool to help people, although I'm not sure what exactly.

Software Suites

A software suite is a collection of seperate application programs bundled together and made available as a group. It is cheaper to buy a suite than all the applications invididually.
Productivity suites you can buy and use for buisiness work. They are professional-grade application programs.
Alternate office suites you can download off the internet for free. The downside to this is if you share or save a document on the internet with an application depends on the server that is providing the application.

How can technology be used to create?

Technology can be used to create software and applications.  Applications, like those found on an iPhone or iPod, are small programs. Some you can play games on and some do things like check the weather and check your email.

And using technology to create is sort of easy but sort of complicated.  Anyone could do it, but only more experienced people can design more complicated applications and software.

iPods

iPods are basically portable music players that can hold large amounts of memory. The creator of the iPod is the company Apple. There is a lot of different models of the iPod so different people can get what they want for their needs. Most of the newer models are touch screens. Touch screens are controlled by your fingers. The previous models of the iPod mostly had small finger pads you used to control what is going on.

Write one to three paragraphs explaining everything you know or think you know about how computers work.

All I know about how computers work is when you push the "On" button, they turn on.  And if you click on stuff then it will open or do something else if you want it to. I also know that you can save stuff on your computer because it has memory.
