Group Project

For my group project I would love to research and talk to the class about net neutrality because I think this is an interesting topic that might be passed by our government without many of us knowing what it means. The thought of us having to pay for something that is free to us right now is just bonkers, and it might happen just because we are not aware. I watched John Oliver who did a piece on it and was the only way that I heard about it if not for him then I also wouldn’t know anything about it. I still have to get more information on this topic because even though John Oliver is the best I watched it a while back and I want to research more on the topic. Since I don’t have much else to talk about Net Neutrality I will talk about John Oliver who is a show host on HBO and why I like him. John’s show is one of my favorite because he only does one show per week but that show is always packed with so much information because of the massive research he does. He is a British comedian and makes the topics so much easier to understand and even fun to watch, and many of his topics are of problems I didn’t know much about. I love to watch the show and the topic that he brought up I believe would be fun to share in class for group projects.

Dinosaurs

The last couple of classes we talked about companies and how they competed with each other with the web coming out. It was really interesting to hear that the ones who made it after the dot.com bomb were the ones that made it and now are some of the most powerful companies that we have, like Amazon and Apple. Aol who now is even rare to see an email from it was one of the leaders a couple of years ago, and because of how fast technology changes it is not a big player anymore. Companies adopting change is what made them stay relevant and survive. It was also interesting how many companies like Microsoft were not interested changing to get more integrated and that could have been the end for them but still they got out of the dot.com crisis and are one of the biggest companies. Making so much money that even if they stopped now they would still be making money. So many companies becoming extinct like the dinosaurs was a great way to comparison, also on how slow and p

A pretty interesting guy.

Shadrach White came to talk to us on Wednesday and him talking about starting business was very interesting. He started because he was at the right place at the right time and because of this he ended up making his own business that is growing. Shadrach’s business reminded me of govworks because it has to deal with government, but that’s only because we just watched it and because they both are trying to make government work easier. Having the ability to start a company with free servers was probably the most interesting thing he mentioned since it means that creating your company before was way harder because you would need that extra money so you could just start it. He also talked about how they recreate the programs they used to cut down cost, and that is very smart since you will always want to be competitive with your pricing. Shadrach mentioned that he used his connections to start his company by doing freelancing in companies and waiting until he had enough
