Afghanistan and news technologies

Publié par : maellep le : juin 17, 2009

I have choose an article on http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/
learningenglish/newsenglish/witn/030409_witn.shtml
This is an article taken from the BBC News Web Page,
titled “Afghan's first computer specialists”,
it was posted on “Wednesday 09 April 2003”.

        This article is about a country that is not part of the
European Union, the Afghanistan.
I have choose to present this article because it presents a
very interesant phenomenon.
Even if it was posted in 2003, it is likely to surprise
 more than one.
In fact it explains that it have Afghan’s first computer
specialists graduated from Kabul University.

The interest for me to present this article is simply
to show to people that
really are developing technologies around the world
and not just in Europe or
the United States.

 In addition, women have graduated and are suited
 to contribute to rebuilding the country.
This country is constantly evolving,
we must follow his evolution...

I conclude my presentation by advising everyone to read this
very interesting article.

Critics vidéo games

Publié par : pereznoemie le : juin 17, 2009

 

This article is drawn from BBC news. It was written by Rory Cellan-Jones, Correspondent of technology, news of BBC Wednesday, 5 November 2008.

This article is called ”Ranges to outsell music, video” it speaks about the video plays which beats recors level sale at the point to exceed the video one and the music.

I find that in this article there is lack of information because they understand definitely that video games are in strong increase, that they exceed music sales as well as those of video but they do not know why. Especially that we are in period crisis then why video games would exceed music. There is therefore a lack of explanation. One finds many figures in this article but has no moment it is explained to us why such a rise whereas it is nevertheless important and informative to know.

Chat : a good technology or a real danger ?

Publié par : maellep le : juin 17, 2009

I have choose an article on the website: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/5279164.stm

Last updated: Wednesday, 23 August 2006, 15:17 GMT 16:17 UK

A lot of people use Windows Messenger like chat, often the minors but not only.

Indeed, child use computer for example to speak about their friend, family or other children.

Chat is a good way to play or talk with friends without leaving home. If they live far away for example. However, there are problems on Internet for children firstly. The chat is not secures to fight sexual predators of children.

This article is about this phenomenon and it will present a future icon which can to the children who want signal abuses.

In fact, with this system, users of Windows Messenger can report suspected sexual predators of children with a mouse click.

It’s, to me a good solution but we must expect that there will be abuses of using this icon. Some will click and play for nothing just to play for example. Other events may happen for example the case of a dispute. Two people can argue about the chat and one of them can play to click on the button just to save uncomfortable another.

To conclude this analysis I can say that this article present a very serious problem and an important danger for children on Internet. For most of us, we have little brothers and sisters, we will have children later, we have also little cousins nieces, nephews and other children in our family. In addition, we were all children. That is why this disaster affects us all…

Anxious parents create boom in mobiles

Publié par : flandrinjessica1 le : juin 17, 2009

Let us look at advantages and disavantages of mobile phones
According to me, the main element is when one buys a mobile, always one must look at its functions (photos, mp3…), as well as the possibilities of communication, with calls, text messages and the Internet. Let’s not forget the subscription by price advantages according to the different contracts with various operators.

The availability and the mobility are also an important choice because during our free time, we can easily link up with friends, families no matter when.

A wearable and practical mobile, creaps easily in the pocket thanks to its smallness, its easiness to be handled. We can also use it freely without restraint.

Therefore through the international, whether you are far away or near, the mobile is the best means and the more rapid way to communicate.

I don’t absolutely agree when mobile top-up cards are sold at stiff prices, because they create sudden expenses since the card must be used in one week for five euros or for fifteen days for example. In most cases, according to the contract you took, you lose your communication credit if not used at the end of the month. In few cases, it can be added to the following month. However it’s also true that the price remains very stiff. People send messages but mainly call a lot about all and anything.

Finally, we must consider many dangerous sicknesses such as cancer for example. It means an important risk on our health, we must remenber it. Normally, we should switch off the mobile at night, we mustn’t put it against our heart, or on sensitive zones… because that could cause serious damages.

To cut a long story short, the basic problem to me is that telephone network isn’t diversified enough. That is a problem in case of emergency since most people don’t have a house phone any more.

I find that the journalist wrote a good article but doesn’t have enough deepens on the subject.
Would you accept to have a phone grafted in your body or your cerebrum?

The influence of Internet on the globalization

Publié par : flandrinjessica1 le : juin 17, 2009

Internet is a world computer network which makes open to the public services as the E-mail, the immediate messaging and the systems of division of files but he does not have to make us the others forget tools of communication and expression which we arrange as newspapers, books, albums, exubations, conferences …

Thanks to its diverse means of communication and broadcasting they can allows a fast correspondence worldwide integer and a source of inexhaustible information but sources are not always exact what provokes confusions in mind of people who do not know any more what to believe.

Online shops by examples ebay, priceminister, intermarkets and others. Allow people to go shopping on national scale, European or world, what to create a dependence, the persons do not move any more, they stay at home, there is no more contact human. The illegal downloads of films, musics to create a financial hole for the artists and the producers in the sales areas of stores or legal download.

We are in a consumer society of strong!

Money on Twitter ?

Publié par : m4rioh le : juin 16, 2009

This article from the Daily News deals with the fact that dells wins more than 3 millions dollars with the help of twitter. Indeed, thanks to Twitter followers who clicked through its posts to its Web sites to make purchases.

Twitter

In my Opinion, Twiter is the new inescapable social network. When we think that a company like Dell makes money thanks to Twitter and clicks of there followers, it’s amazing ! The PC maker has become one of the first public examples of how companies might profit from Twitter.

Universal Music and Virgin

Publié par : m4rioh le : juin 16, 2009

This article deals with the offer of Universal Music of his entire catalog music with famous artists to customers of Virgin Media.

guitar-behringer

I think isn’t a good idea because we knows that the music business is actually in difficulty with the free an illegal download. So lot of artists win less and less money. The illegal downloader aren’t often punished and ist’ unacceptable because with the new technology it’s easy to find this people.

This exchange of music between the two company should be banned

MySpace Cuts Work Force

Publié par : m4rioh le : juin 16, 2009

This article from bbc news deals with the Work Force of MySpace Company. I think that my space, can’t be concurrent with the new social web community. Actually the market is submerged by this new technology. MySpace is now old and isn’t innovative and the site’s performance is poor compared with rivals services. But isn’t a reason to cuts the work force by 30 Percent. It’s unacceptable to put people like this in poverty.

Intermarché et écomarché launch mobile website

Publié par : kieferfrancois le : juin 16, 2009

This article is about a new website on mobile phone from the group “The Musketeers” entitled “Intermarché et écomarché launch mobile website” written by Virginie Baucomont on the six of March.                                                                                                                                                                    The site offers a list of fresh produces “the lowest prices”.

So, this news from CB News (http://www.cbnews.fr/articles/multimeda), is interesting because it informs the consumer of the different promotions available at “The Musketeers” bargains. But the negative point is that this initiative covers only fresh products.

Copyright infringement: Dailymotion constrained to pay 80 000€

Publié par : kieferfrancois le : juin 16, 2009

This article speaks about the condemnation of Dailymotion to pay eighty thousand Euros.                                                                                                               In effect, Dailymotion plat form has broadcasted videos without autorisation of two documentaries. The title of this article is “Copyright infringement: Dailymotion constrained to pay 80 000€”, and from the CB News website (http://www.cbnews.fr/articles/multimeda), written by Frederic Roy on the 16th of April.

I think that Dailymotion is an interesting plat form, where we can see various videos, but it’s important that the broadcasts are made in the roles.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        So i think it’s normal that Dailymotion has been ordered to pay.
