This is my last blog

2007-07-30T01:59:00.000-07:00

Finally, I got the last topic about computer.
The last topic is "What more would you like to learn?" I learned how to make web page, how to use Power Point, excel, and word. I learned many things about computer and some software.
However, maybe I don't know many things about computer yet, so if I have a chance to increase my knowledge about it, I want to get it.
By the way, what should I do about this blog after I finished this topic? I think I will never use this blog unless I am required to continue writing some topic in this blog by my professor. Anyway, now I finish last topic thank you for reading this poor writing if readers are there.

Viral Video

2007-07-22T19:46:00.000-07:00

First of all, what does "Viral Video" means? Well, that means a commercial in Internet. Usually, we watch commercial on TV, so viral video is not familiar with me. By the way, why is viral video called "viral"? It means that once you watch it you will get virus on your personal computer? No, it is called viral because when it turns out, it is really fast to spread out, that's why it is called viral video.
Generally, Internet has less restriction than TV, so viral video has excessive expression and it cause some problem. For example, it hurts the image of company, it gives bad feeling for a person who watches viral video, and it is too sexual. Therefore, some people argue about it.

Computer gifts you would buy for friends & family

2007-07-16T20:48:00.000-07:00

If I give computer gifts to my friends, I will choose iphone for gift. This is because iphone has really great features such as Internet, ipod, phone, and camera. So many things are in one small machine, and many people would like it. If my friends refuse to have it, I will choose another gift for friends. That is USB flash. This is also great, especially for students. Since most students are required to use computer when they write essays and they will need a place to save those things and USB flash has much capacity, so they can write essays without anxiety.

What is net neutrality

2007-07-09T00:02:00.000-07:00

First of all, I don't understand what the net neutrality is, so I researched a little bit about this on Internet. According to the cite where I found about this topic, net neutrality is generally that Internet user should be controlled by what they are watching or what they are using on Internet. In other words, nobody is allowed to control Internet. Therefore, every Internet carriers can't use their market power to order Internet user to use their production. There are many things about this topic are going on, and this is a main issue in U.S. However I don't completely understand what computer people are saying, so actually I'm not interested in it.
I will think about this topic when it affects me but now, it doesn't matter.

Tell about some recent computer news

2007-07-01T22:54:00.000-07:00

I'm going to tell about some recent computer news. The first news is that Japanese company which is called "Hagiwara. Sys-com" announced that they will sell 2GB and 4GB memory stick on July and on December. I guess this is big news because we can have extremely big data in our pocket.
The second news is that computer virus are improving. We have software to protect our computer from virus, however, recently virus can change their form to hide from software's search. When I read this news, I was worried about my computer, but now this computer doesn't have any virus, so I'm little bit comfortable.
That's all for my computer news report.

Introduce 3 good web pages

2007-06-22T05:58:00.000-07:00

I will introduce my 3 favorite sites, but I'm not sure these web pages are good or not. Anyway, First web page is about basketball. Because I like basketball and to watch NBA, I sometimes use this web page to search what is going on NBA.
Now NBA is off season, but soon Draft will coming, so I use this web page very often.
Next web page is about F1. I also like F1, so I often use this web page to search where the next stage is or who the top is. In this season, Big new star appeared,
so I really take care it.
The third web page is about iPhone. Because I knew about this in computer class, I'm really interested in it, so I checked this web page.
All of above are my favorites web pages.

What is Social Engineering?

2007-06-17T22:05:00.000-07:00

Social Engineering is a kind of fraud. When people try to get money in this way, they usually pretend to be a person who is close to the objects.
For example, in Japan, recently there are the people who try to get money in this way which is called "OreOre fraud". Their target is old people because they have much money and are cheated easily.
Fraud pretend to be a son or daughter of old people and tell a lie to cheat them. The lie is like this, "I'm in trouble and I really need money to solve this problem, so please pay the money into my account."
The important thing is that don't say the name, just say "I" to cheat and if old people ask them "Does your voice changed?", just say "I catch a cold."
I don't understand why the old people were cheated in this way, but clearly, many old people were cheated and taken their money.
Now, this type fraud is unusual because this way is well known, so we can easily recognized. However, fraud created new way. They changed a person to pretend. They pretend to be a policeman or a fireman and this way becomes mainstream. We can find out whether they are fraud or not if we pay attention it.
What will happen if we completely protect our money from fraud? Do they disappear? well, I don't think so, I think they will create new ways and we will try to protect ourselves and it will continue like vicious circle.

What do I know about Mac?

2007-06-12T01:55:00.000-07:00

Actually, I don't have a lot of information about Mac, but I know some special features about it.

First of all, its desktop is different from Windows. Windows just has each icon, for example Micro Soft Word, Power Point, and Internet Explore or Mozilla on desktop, but Mac has good pictures of these things under the desktop. Because of this feature, users can quickly and easily choose what they want to do the next although they are already woking on Internet or other things. How? Usually, Windows takes a time to find it if users already did anotherthing. However, Mac is different. It clearly appere under the desktop, so users can easily find out that.

The second good feature is that Mac will never be attacked by virus. I don't know how it completely protect itself, but clearly this feature is really good. As you know, Windows sometimes easily gets virus, so you can understand how Mac is good.

And that's all I know about Mac.

My History with Computer

2007-06-01T00:03:00.000-07:00

This is my first assignment for Writing Work Shop.

When I was a pupil, I learned computer in a class. Before I leaned about it, I neither used nor touched computer. Therefore, computer was unknown tool for me.
However, because my computer teacher had enough knowledge and technique to teach about it for students who are not familiar with computer, it was easy to know the way of using computer correctly.
At first, he taught how to use power point. I remember that I made circle again and again, and when he saw it, he suggested, "Why don't you create basketball shape with using circle?" I tried to make it, but I couldn't do it because I only knew making circle. I asked him, "Teacher! I don't know how to make basketball shape!! So I can't do it!" When he heard my complain, he smiled and showed me how to make basket ball shape by doing slowly. Because of his good demonstration, I could make basketball shape correctly. I was happy.
