Online A Reflection

     Technology is important because it connects people, makes people's lives easier, and lets people see things they would not be able to see without it. Technology has changed quite a bit over the past 5 years. Smartphones have become something that almost everyone has and most people cannot live without them. Computers have gotten faster and capable of more things. Video games and the way we get music has changed and Facebook has become a social media giant. I believe that technology will keep getting faster and more innovative over the next 5 years. As shown by motion detective devices like the Kinect for Xbox or the PlayStation Move, video games and smartphones will become controlled more by motion, than touch.
       At school I use a lot of technology. I use computers in more than one class and use my Ipod and my phone to look things up when I cannot access a computer. I use my laptop at home to type essays and other school assignments. But at home I use a lot more technology. I use my laptop, Ipod, and my Xbox to play games. I use the TV to watch the news and other shows.
        I will use some of the tools from Online A at home and in school. they will help me do things on the internet faster and better. I think that the RSS feed or iGoogle are the best for lifelong learning because you can connect to so many different News sites, Blogs or Sports pages with the RSS feed and with iGoogle. you would be connected to enough outlets to let you know almost everything important happening in the world. I will probably never use the Avatar, or Delicious again. I had fun creating the Podcast. it was cool to hear myself talking from the computer. My least favorite was the avatar/Voki, my character kept getting deleted and so did my audio, it got a bit annoying after awhile.
