A presentation that is memorable most having a shocking fact or statistic that throws someone for a loop. It has to be uncommon and unique. It most have pictures, and maybe interactive with the people listening to the presentation.

 What did you learn from the Ted Talk yesterday? Did you find it interesting or accurate? Explain.

It was very interesting and also, very accurate. People are getting to wrapped up in their model devices, and it shows. Most phones use many other things than call and text. It's becoming ridicules about how much model devices are beginning  to have complete control over peoples lives. My phone only takes calls and texts, and it's only what, a few years old, and it works just fine. People are so wrapped up in the devices that they don't even when someone gets shoot right in front of their faces. They just carry on their way like nothing has ever happened.

What do you love about the "digital age" that we currently live in? What do you dislike about it? What are positives ways you use technology in your life? What are some things that come along with technology that you don't like? Explain. 

The digital age, despite it's infinite use, is nothing more than a double edge sword. Everything on the internet, to normal word, to top secret documents, are all storied on the internet. Hackers, with the right training, could bring the whole system down. You can figure out how to pick locks, make bombs and many other bad things on the internet. Despite everything about it, you can' stop technology that effectively, and advancements are made all the time. Granted, for most of its history, the military has got the new stuff first, then it is converted to civilian use.

Tell me about your Homecoming weekend (whether you went to the activities or not!). Tell me about what you did over the weekend.

My Homecoming weekend was not spent at Homecoming. I had a marching band competition Saturday, and if we had stayed, may have won third place overall. The rest of the weekend was spent playing video games, such as fire emblem, skyrim, minecraft, and other games.

What do you know about infographics? What do you know about them? What are their purpose?

Infographics are graphs that have a visual component as part of the information that the graph presents.  I don't really know anything else, and that was only an educated guess.
