It's a bird, it's a plane, it's your computer in the clouds! Tonight I sat down and watched the couple of online videos that had been posted on cloud computing. A lot of it came across as blah blah blah, but on CNet news spot with Dan Farber, I understood/grasped a bit more when the guy being interviewed said that the notion of cloud computing originated in the early days of the internet when developers drew the internet to be a cloud (I think I have that right). I found it funny when the guy also said that the young people today don't in a million years realize that the internet is not just a light switch, it's so much more than that. I also liked one of the people that was interviewing and said cloud computing was being able to let your so and so manager go on vacation since you don't have to be in worry over your server going down. It's just another tech related thing I truly take for granted.
I also was planning on trying to get started on assignment number four but when I reread the directions for like the millionith time, I realize that I definitely am going to need to do some further readings before 123, I can just make my demonstration. I mean we're using jing, but talking about firefox for zotero, saving it to screencast, and then finally having it end up in my blog-I am exhausted from just typing and thinking about all those steps. I think I am okay with the tech/hardware requirements-my boyfriend used to be an avid WOW player (thankfully I have broken him of that nasty "habit" ha ha), so the mic should still be good to go.
Majorly bummed that tomorrow starts yet another week. This wekend was not nearly long enough. Stop with the work and assignments though, s'il vous plait. I need to breathe. Relaxing would be nice too.
