Web Page with HTML

When professor Fry told us a way to check out the coding for specific webpage I went played with that a little bit. Man, it was so much text that made no sense, it was just so confusing. so many words just combined to just make one webpage. There was one paragraph of just < > to make one tenth of the page, different sections were made with separate html texts. This assignment really opened my eyes and made me aware of how a page is made. I have friends in the computer science field and in the web design field, they always made it sound so easy nothing as complicated as what it is. This assignment was just one sentence on a blank page, I can’t even imagine what could have gone in to making a full-size webpage. When the instructions were passed out in class and I started looking over them it looked so confusing. I was for sure I was going to have troubles doing this mini project. When I started doing the assignment it was super easy, I was amazed how easy I finished the project.

Post Office Mail vs E-mail

Similarities between post office mail and email-          Both mail and email have a mailbox to receive mail.- Post mail has a box built outside of each home that receives mail. Email has an inbox that receives all incoming mail.          Mail and email both a centralized location where the mail is collected and then re-distributed to the receiver.          Both are used by advertisers to solicit people.- Advertisers send mass emails to people to get people to know about sales. Mail sends mass print letters to individual people.          Mail and email have some sort of way to sort out the mail- for example- no illegal substances can be sent via mail. Email has a feature to sort the mail to the junk folder. Differences between post office mail and email-         Mail is a physical form of mail. Email is digitalized.          Email is received faster than mail.- Email can be sent from location and received in a matter of minutes. Mail is received in 5-7 days.

Learnings from this class

Though I was born where technology advancements were at an all-time high I don’t know all the ins and outs of technology. I still till this day am I learning new things every day from family friends, surprisingly enough I learn new things from my eight-year-old brother. But, if we put it in to perspective my little brother was born in to technology whereas me 21 years ago was slowly exposed to technology. Back when I was in grade school we would have a physical copy of everything textbooks, notebooks, we wouldn’t use anything digital, comparing that to my brother they probably use 85% digital tools and 15% physical. I really would like to know some of the ways all this new technology is bad for us and the upcoming generations. To the naked eye we see how convenient technology makes our lives but with all that there must be a downside and that’s what I’d like to know. From my understanding it is that it has been accessible for larger corporations and the government to track us based o
