Week 3's lecture was not as boring as i thought it would be :) It's so weird how we use these technologies everyday of every week and barely any of us actually have an understanding of where they originated from and why it is so. I couldn't believe the the first ideas of a computer started back in the 1800's, let alone by a woman!! (which is amazing) It amazes me the society just continues to invite this stuff into their lives, to me it seems as though there is little apprehension in accepting these technologies into our lives. When really, little of us have a complete understanding of the way in which these technologies work and what they are capable of. I don't know maybe computers really will take over the world.... It was interesting to see how Mac and Pc came around. I thought it was crazy that 1. Bill gates dropped out of University, and 2. that Apple started in a garage.
All in all, history of communication technologies (computer esp.) wasn't all that bad.
TUTESPARK**
This task is impossible. I searched the meaning of electric, digital and analog and could not with the life of me piece together 1 situation let alone 3, where digital technology could be formed without the use of electricity in some form. This TUTESPARK was bad, and i think that we needed more of an explanation or example in either the lecture or tutorial.
Please, fill in the blanks-
1.
2.
