Screencast 2 (Creating collections in Google Documents)

For this screencast I used www.screenr.com. Screencast-o-matic was a lot more user friendly. The website was easier to figure out. When I recorded my second screencast on screenr the quality wasn't as good. I liked screencast-o-matic way better :)

Screencast

A screencast is a video where the setting is a computer screen. The video is narrated to describe the on screen action. Screencasts are used to demonstrate or train viewers how to use new things on the computer. What I liked about making one was I thought it was fun because I've seen screencasts but I've never made one before and it was cool to learn about how to make one and also how their used. This could be helpful to me if I was downloading a new program/software on my computer that I didn't know how to use yet. I could watch a screencast that shows me how to use it. It would be most helpful to someone who is new to a program/software and wants to learn how to use it.

Posting a Windows Live document to Blogger

Google Documents vs. Windows Live

Google Documents vs. Windows Live

Differences- Windows use the same documents that Microsoft word uses and Google Documents are different than Microsoft because of copyrights. Google Documents use a different email address than Live. The layouts are also different. 

Similarities- They can both upload and share files. Google and Live both can be accessed on more than just one computer. They also both serve the same purpose, you can create files you can access anywhere on both programs. 

In my opinion I like Windows Live better. I feel like its a lot more simple and secure to use. I like the layout better too. When you're creating a document there seems like there are more options. Windows Live looks more organized. Overall I just like Windows Live much more than Google Documents. 

Technology - Google's Driver-less Cars

Google gets license to operate driverless cars in Nevada Google has created a self driving system. They say that this self driving system will "help prevent traffic accident, free up peoples time, and reduce carbon emissions by fundamentally changing car use." These cars use radio sensors, video cameras, laser range finder to sense traffic, and detailed maps. Last spring they said it had safely completed over 200,000 miles of computer led driving. The first company that applied to test its self driving system in Nevada, was Google. The self driving system may help those who are visually impaired to be able to have a nicer easier way of transportation. It could also improve are transportation technology in the

future. I think its really cool!
