In Exploring Technology we have visited a lot of different types of technology including, blogging, podcasting, RSS, Wikis, Bloglines, and Google Drive. of all of these specific types of technology my favorite one to use had to be Google Drive. I could definitely use this after high school. It allows multiple google account owners to edit a certain document at one time. (as long as they have been invited by the creator.) it would be a great tool to use in college with a partner on a certain assignment if we are across campus or don't want to meet up to exchange flash drives. Another way i could use this technology is to make documents from anywhere in the world and be able to be on live feed with someone else to help me, if i am in a job making things on the computer for many people I'm going to need co workers help on the document,Google drive is perfect for that. And the last reason I would use it is just to have fun! I could start a document with a friend and just tell each other what we've been up to and they can see it whenever and wherever! All in all it is a awesome piece of technology that i think is highly underused/underrated. On the other hand, a piece of this technology that i would not use (of the six mentioned in the beginning) would be blogging. Blogging has been totally washed out by other social networking sites like facebook, if i were to create a business the first thing i would do is make a facebook page and invite people. i don't think a lot of people go out of their way to look at blogs, i could have a thousand views on facebook in a few weeks if i tried. I have had a blog this whole semester and i don't think i have broken 120 views. As for the aspect of personal use i would also go with a different social network like facebook or twitter.

Extended Winter Break
This Winter Break has ben especally fun probably my favorite thing about it was we got an extra week off of school due to the weather. Over the break I hung out with friends and did all the holiday stuff like Christmas Partys and New Years Parties. Other than that I went to wrestling pratice and meets or just enjoyed relaxing and watching movies. For the first time in a while i did not do much outside because it was way to cold for me, hopefully next year we get an extra week off to.
