The article is on the new operating system windows 10 The new browser called Spartan got me interested and since I dislike windows 8 and Peter Casey thinks those who dislike it are wrong. I could share how much I hate that os enough to buy a mac, and end the endless upgrading charms which only work on touch tablets and assorted other painful things on 8. So looking forward to 10 and also Spartan. Hope its better than explorer since I use mozilla and explorer doesn't really work with blackboard ooops

Second Life

I wanted to share about a site called second Life. Its a site where you can be in a virtual world. I got as far as registering my name but I don't like installing other browsers not even if it is to run a virtual world. Mr casey I don't want this stuff on my computer (my instructor) I am not even interested at all. I have to say I have signed up for a google password and account but I will not do this. so in your assignment which I am a little behind on. I have been sick and slow and also I have found that unless I am sick and dying I will not take another online course. The site though looked good but I wonder what it will do to people who already are addicted to the online world and who don't participate in the real world. I know a few people that this would be very tempting to be on all the time. I think caution should be used with things like this. I for one am not too thrilled with it.

I don't know if I want my space to come back but it would be cool to give facebook a run for its money

Introduction Week 1

I needed to go into cis 120 for my degree and didn't want to pay 60 to take a test plus I thought there would be something useful in it.

Gogoro Smartscooter

Gogoro’s Smartscooter is an electric scooter with a range of nearly 100 miles, but you don’t recharge its battery: you swap it. The company will operate a series of hubs where batteries can be reserved ahead of time, then swapped for the one that’s running out. There’s no news on its launch date or likely price, including the cost of the ongoing subscription for the batteries.
