MY SUPREME HACKING SKILLS ;)



Two Videos for Prep

The first of the two videos for prep talks about how the internet has built up and focuses mainly on 60 Hudson Street which is a main node for internet connectivity. I found it interesting because you can see the makeshift "heart" of the internet.

The second video tells us how mobiles have integrated themselves into our modern day life and how they have become standard and common now. To not be "connected" is now uncommon and it makes you realise how much the world has moved on and how quickly things have changed.

WOW!

THE PACE OF CHANGE

In Matt Edgar's blog, we learn how quickly the world is changing and how it is changing. For example: if someone came up to you and said "Do you think our world is changing?" I'm pretty sure you would say "yes of course" but I am also sure that if the person who asked you the original question then said "did you know that it took the radio 40 years to reach a sale market of 50 million, did you also so know that it took the iPod only 5 years and YouTube only 6 months to reach this same milestone!" I think these point (as examples) show clearly how quickly things are moving on and thus show us the "Pace of Change."
