Problems

I have so many computer problems. Right now my computer won't connect to our wireless network in our apartment. It's weird. It works in other places but not in my apartment. It says it has excellent connection, but then says it is acquiring the network address. I'm not sure what that means..any answers?

Copyright Laws

I think copyright laws are a good thing. It protects peoples creations, and other works of art. Sometimes it's a pain to work around copyright laws, but overall I think they are good. If people were more honest we wouldn't need the copy right laws, but people aren't always honest and so the copy right laws are needed to protect individuals, and their work. I wouldn't change anything about the copyright laws. I think they are necessary in todays society.

Resources

I would like to start using the google applications. I was really excited to learn about the online google calendar. I'm not good at remembering what is duewhen for all of my classes, so the online google calendar would be awesome to use for me. I especially like that google will send you text messages to your phone reminding you of the things you have to do, or assignments that are due for that day. The google applications specifically stood out to me. I will be definitely using them in the future. These resources would be helpful to me as a student because I would be able to remember more easily what I have to do and when. For a teacher it would be nice just to be able to make powerpoints, and typical documents for your classes. You could pull them up anywhere you wanted. That would be so helpful.

My Tech Experience

My technology experience hasn't been very positive. I'm not what you would call tech savvy person. I can get on the internet and search things ,I'm good with cell phones, but in general computers aren't my friends. I took a computer class in high school hoping I would be able to get more familiar with computers, but that didn't happen. Everything went in one ear and out the other. I didn't retain very much at all. I can do the basics with technology, but that's it.
