Screen cast Reflection

1. How do you think you did? I think that I did very well on this project. I personally thought I was easy to understand there was no background noise and I spoke clearly. 2. Do you think your audience will be able to complete that tasks given based on your tutorial? I think that the audience will be able to perform this task very simply. I made sure to go step by step to make sure that the person could keep up and figure out how to get the survey on their blog. 3. What was easy and what did you have trouble with? I think that the majority of this project was easy. The thing that I had the most trouble with was trying to multitask. Trying to talk clearly and click on the correct buttons was a bit of a challenge. 4. How could you use this web 2.0 tool in the future? I think I could use this tool in the future to maybe help others learn how to use Microsoft tools. 5. Other thoughts . . . I thought this project was short and sweet and it’s a good tool to learn to use for future reference.

Emerging Technology Part 1

Technology that has emerged from 2009 is the siri device. In the year 2009 Adam Cheyer tried to figure out a way to have "do engine" instead of a "search engine." The device was going to help people, like having your own personal assistant. Now in the year 2013 this invention is now being used in everyday life. The device is included in iphones, and ipads. Many people see this as a big help in technology, they don't have to wait for someone if they are busy and need help they have their own personal assistant who is there for then when ever and where ever they need them.

Emerging Technology Part 1

Light Field Photography:
The beginning of this month the Lytro camera company made the first major camera update design since cheap photography was created. The camera update is sold for $399 or more depending on the place its being sold. The company is trying to make more options that just refocusing the camera they are trying to make 3-d images at home. The camera records the angle at which rays of light arrive. This invention is called the light-field camera. Although they existed before this they have never been cheap enough for consumers to purchase. What made the cameras so expensive was that there are multiple lenses, but now the makers say that putting a low cost plastic film that has tiny microleses on the top of the digital sensor count make it detect the direction of the light. Something in the future that they are working on is being able to focus the camera after taking a picture. Future technology is going to be improved greatly. I’m not sure exactly how it could be considering how it is right now but someone will find a way. Maybe one thing is that they will make the cameras print right when you take the picture. One thing that surprised me is how they are still trying to better cameras. Also with the price coming down everyone will want to camera, as the price drops more people will be purchasing it. Cameras are already amazing and to think that they are getting better is beyond me.
