ScreenCast

A screen cast is something that you can record and the recording is the computer screen you are working on. I really liked creating one because its like making a video of like a how to video on a certain topic. This can be helpful because if i don't how to do something then i can look up a video of somebody do the action. I think it would be helpful to people that aren't very computer savvy like old people. They can look up how to create an email, a Google account, a blogger etc.

I like Windows Live a lot better than Google Docs. Live is exactly like Microsoft Word which is what i like to use all the time when I'm working it just makes me more organized than i normally am. Google Docs seems to be more scrambled with what you can do with it but overall its just below Live in the rankings.

Job Cluster

The number one cluster that i got is finance which planning, services for financial and investment planning, banking, insurance, and business financial management. The jobs that i could have in financing are customer service representative, finance training, financial planning assistant, loan coordinator, operations clerk/manager, para-financial planner, banking services, or an accountant. I think this cluster kind of fits me the best. It has my interests and everything but in the long run i don't think i would be happy doing these jobs until I retire.

Review

Google Docs is an online application created by Google that lets you upload and create a file that two or more people can work on at the same time. Google docs can be used to create a presentation to your class or a survey to people on your blog. They can take the survey and you can view the results in a different document. Wiki is a website that you can add, modify or delete its content via web browser.Wikis are powered by their own software and are created usually by two or more users. Assistive Technology helps the physically impaired people with something that can not do without the help of somebody else. For example, a hearing aid helps people who are going deaf, and a large print keyboard can help a person out who is losing their sight.

Google Docs Wrap Up

What i like about Google docs is that you can work with 2 people on the same document, and that it saves automatically when something is erased or written down. The one thing that really bothered me when using Google docs was that when your partner was typing and you were trying to type as well your computer ran really slow and you always had to wait for it to catch up to you. I loved the fact that you can work on the same document as your partner that's something I've never really seen before. Google just needs to update it i think it just seems to plain and old and not real up to date with everything. My project seemed to turn out very well not a lot of problems with things it just seemed like our time management was off and could get quite finished.

Technology

The article I found is all about the new social gaming hit Draw Something.The creator of the app, OMGPOP got bought by Zynga for $200 million. It is the modern day Pictionary, that you can play on your phone or iPad.You have 3 options to choose from graded from easy to hard, and if you pick th easy option you only earn 1 coin for drawing it etc. This game is extermely addictive!
