Class Discussion

Today in class we had a discussion over the Did You Know 3.0 video we watched last night for homework. One of my favorite facts that i shared in class was it took the radio about 38 years to become popular, the cell phone about 5, but facebook only took 2 years to become popular. The man making facebook had no idea when he created it that it would be so popular making it available in over 70 languages. Also, we learned that cell phones have come a long way in the last 20 years since the very first one was created. When they were first made, you could not carry them around like you do now. Also, now a lot more features are included in the phone. A camera is one of the biggest and most impressing things found in a phone today because years ago if you wanted you phone and a camera you had to use each of them separately. Also, ipods have made music more portable then ever. Before ipods, rows of records were lined up and when you wanted to listen to music you had to physically find the record and play it. Now all the space the records took up can fit into your pocket. With the technological advances we have now compared to years ago, we have life so much easier than people from long ago. As the Did You Know 3.0 said, people studying technology, their devices they are learning on will be out dated in only 3 years!
