Apparel website and computers & electronics web site

1) http://www.scribd.com/doc/533030/SHOPPING-aDRIANA

2) I have visited the webs: bestbuy.com and buy.com which sell computers and electronics in the web and two webs of miscellaneous sellers too: walmart.com and sharperimage.com.
I have been investigating and looking at these webs and the products that offer are very new, so I thinks that people buy from Internet because the products are exclusives. Normally the prices are more reduction compared with the shops and in some webs they offered you the expenses of free sending and it encourages you to buy.
But the purchase in Internet has disadvantages too, since you risk buying a product without having seen it really and without having proved and tried it. It can arrived to you with damages.
Their policies of returning marchandise are flexes, you have the option of change the marchandise but until a few certain days and with too many requirements that they impede the return.
In conclusion buying in Internet has advantages but eventually not always you go out winning.

Smart Shoes, it must be banned?

Nowadays it’s ordinary to see a child spoken about his new shoes, there are more and more parents who let their children buy a pair of these smart shoes. It seems to be an ordinary shoe but it has a novel technology, it has an intelligence system that allows you to be more comfortable and qualified, depending of the activity you are doing. Then it appears the question: It’s fair? In my opinion if we are talking about a race or competition serious, the shoes must be banned because the participants aren’t in the same level. But in the playground of the school they couldn’t be banned. They are only children playing with their games and it’s normal that if they see in TV a spot talking about the new and incredible model of shoes, they will be keen on it. They are children and the smart shoes are only mode.

Can Computers Think??

One of the questions more controversy is the discussion about the intelligence of computers. Computers now are used to do somethings that before nobody couldn't believe they could do it.

But what it's the limit of computers? I think that computers can't think and they don't have intelligence. For me computers can do diferents works without mistakes but the merit are for the creators, technicians, analyst who have developed programs which allowed you to do some task in a easily form. As everybody know we are always developing a more sofisticated thecnology to improve our lifes but in my opinion it's imposible give them the talent of the intelligence.

Monitoring Employees

Monitoring employees is a phenomenon into the companies.Recent surveys have found that a majority of employers monitor their employees. Employers want to be sure their employees are doing a good job and although employees thouht that it's a fault of privacy, employers use monitoring employees to control their computer work. spokeswoman. They're concerned with some employees and they need a productive work. There are cases in with a employ has been dissmissed for inappropiate work in his computer. In my opinion it's not fair for the employees to be watched all time but employers must do the best decisions for increase the benefits of their company.

File Sharing

The copy of music and videos it's one of the subjects more controversial and the subject of fashion. Everybody gives their opinion in favour or against doing it. The file sharing is the action of making files available for other users to download. This practise can be done in any number of ways and young people are the more practicing. We know that it's illegally, it's not right, ethical... but if everybody do it it's because it's within our power. My opinion is that if it's illegally goverments must cancell and close all the programs created to download music, films, programs... I understand that we are stealing the work of the musicians, actors, directors but in the other way sometimes they steal our money with their hight prices.
The most used pages are Emule, Ares...

Internet Plagiarism

It's know for everybody that Internet is the big source of information nowadays. The problem start when people like students use this information to complete their works without their personal work. I think that it's not right, because it decrease the educational level but it's very difficult for teachers to discovers if a student has copy or not. Certainly we can't do nothing to stop this because normally the information extracted for Internet is very useful for all the world. The solution more appropiate is be more concerned about students works.

Exploring Google

1- Who are the founders of Google? Google's founders are Larry Page and Sergey Brin.
2- PageRank must examine all the link estructure of the web, and must determine the pages that are most importants, and Google are the responsible of putting the most relevant and reliable results.
3- The button I'm Feeling Lucky immediately takes you to the first web page returned for your question. An you can spend more time looking at the pages and less searching.
4-The hits resulted are 1 - 10 of about 3,430,000,000. Yes, from The American Heritage dictionaries: A markup language used to structure text and multimedia documents and to set up hypertext links between documents, used extensively on the World Wide Web.It takes me 10 minuts.
5- There are less hits 1-10 of about 104,000,000. It takes me 5 minuts.
6- I could create my own Web site because this page http://www.w3schools.com/html/ gives you all the information and the steps that you have to do.

Computer Games

Grand Theft Auto is one example of the variety of violent computers games are now in the market. Society is divides in two opinions. One group thing that it’s only a game, of course a radical game, but you won’t be a criminal in the future if you play with it.
In the other group are people like parents who think that it’s a violent game and a bad influence to their children. My opinion is also divided, I agree thinking that it’s an allowable behaviour, but everybody knows that children can’t play with these games so parents mustn’t let their children use it. In conclusion these games aren’t dangerous but it must be played with precaution.

Foam cups hoax

The history can sound as a joke but it’s true. A web page published that the foam cups were toxic because of their component, the dihydrogen monoxide, which really is the scientific name of the water. In the California city started the panic and suddenly the council banned the foam cups. The council didn’t want to believe that it was a joke.
Frequently in some web pages are false information, people who want lay the users.
And what can we do? The more important thing is analyse the web, the information, the image of the web, we can pay attention of this. As Internet is impossible to be controlled every time, we have the mission to be on the alert.

Job Outsourcing

Some companies have replaced their workers with workers from another country. This phenomenon is called “job outsourcing”. The annoyance of these workers has started with protest, campaigns… For the moment they have obtained laws, tax breaks and other things flattering.
In my opinion the problem is not the offshore outsourcing, the problem is that these companies are dismissed workers and they are running foreigner workers.
The companies employed them because they do more for less; this is why homeland workers can’t stop fighting for justice.
The profits are not an argument for do this injustice.

The first time I used Internet

The first time I used Internet was in primary school, I didn't remember exactly the day but I remember that I was excited. Teachers wanted to show us how Internet and computers function and I were there with my friends laughing and trying to be the first pupil to surf the Internet. We were eager to see the photos of our prefer actors and musicians. When my turn came I didn't believe it, It was great!!!! For Internet was a new world where you can do what you want and everythong is possible. When I grown I was normally there, I started using the messenger and I sent e-mails to my friends. Now I'm everytime cherching and enjoying it but when I started plugging in eveything was new for me and it was an adventure. In conlusion Internet was a fantastic invention in my life.
