What more would you like to learn?

There were many unknown things for me about computers, and through attending this course, I feel more familiar about them than before. However, there are still what I want to know, that is, how to use Excel. It is very hard for me to calculate by Excel. I have to type the formula. The other day I wanted to sum 23 different numbers up; however, to finish this, I spent a long time, which I could calculate them by myself. Thus, I wanted to learn it in the class; nevertheless, I have the best home page, Poza.net/sp07!!! Therefore, I do not need to worry about it! I may be able to understand how to use Excel by looking at the site! I must say thank you for creating always-available and virtual textbook to Mr. Poza.

What is Viral Video???

A Viral Video is a video clip which is watched by many people on the Internet, e-mails, or chats, blogs etc.

For me, the best example of viral videos is Youtube as mentioned in the class. I love to watch music videos of American singers. For example, this following video is the performance by Christina Aguilera in the 49th Grammy Award. She sang for James Brown, and the audience is very excited!! I was EXCITED, too!!!!



Not only for English speaking countries but also for other countries like Japan, people can be user of here. It is extremely amazing!

However, there is a problem of portrait right, I think. Not only for entertainment, but we have to consider about it.

Computer gifts you would buy for friends & family

If I send a computer gift to my friends, I would present a "post pet" soft. When I was in my hometown, I used "Post Pet" mail soft. Pets are so cute and my pet was turtle named Kametaro. One day the first Kametaro was gone, and the second Kametaro left my home quickly, and then I create the third Kametaro. I hope he is still alive. It was very cute and interesting because my pet sends an e-mail instead of me and sometimes he sends a letter for me, which is very unique. However, none of my friends had that soft. I was disappointed because I could not enjoy e-mail with my friends. Therefore, in order to have fun with them I need to send a Post Pet soft.

Net Neutrality

According to Google, Net Neutrality is the principle that Internet users should be in control of what content they view and what applications they use on the Internet.

According to Susan Crawford, The Internet's transport layer should not be shaped in accordance with particular applications but should rather provide only the transport service appropriate to the careful file transfer that was defined in the early 1970s as the Internet's canonical application. Timing of packet delivery is a form of anti-competitive discrimination. Open access would promote network neutrality.

Why people argue is that, for example, if someone paies more money to get faster Internet connection, one may be priored. This can be an invasion, so many people want to be equal.
