hey

hey you might not know me but please don't say you know me get to know me a bit ae..

work 4 school.

1. List all the ways you can think of that you can publish stuff on the Internet.Bebo, blogger, you tube, making your own website, tagged.2. Find a definition of Web 2 that makes sense to you and say where it came from.The concept of "Web 2.0" began with a conference brainstorming session between O'Reilly and Media Live International. Dale Dougherty, web pioneer and O'Reilly VP, noted that far from having "crashed", the web was more important than ever, with exciting new applications and sites popping up with surprising regularity. What's more, the companies that had survived the collapse seemed to have some things in common. Could it be that the dot-com collapse marked some kind of turning point for the web, such that a call to action such as "Web 2.0" might make sense? We agreed that it did, and so the Web 2.0 Conference was born.3. Give some examples of Web 2, and explain the purpose of each one.Ideas, Tech, Information.4. Who writes wikipedia? Do you think you can trust it? Why/why not? Yes I do it gives out a lot of information that a lot of people believe in so yeah I guess I can believe it.5. What is Wiki?Wiki is a page or collection of Web pages designed to enable anyone who accesses it to contribute or modify content (excluding blocked users), using a simplified markup language.[1][2] Wikis are often used to create collaborative websites and to power community websites. The collaborative encyclopedia Wikipedia is one of the best-known wikis.[2] Wikis are used in business to provide intranet and knowledge management systems. Ward Cunningham, the developer of the first wiki software, WikiWikiWeb, originally described it as "the simplest online database that could possibly work".[3]6. What is Flicker useful for? Flicker is visible fading between cycles displayed on video displays, especially the refresh interval on cathode ray tube (CRT) based computer screens. Flicker occurs on CRTs when they are driven at a low refresh rate, allowing the screen's phosphors to lose their excitation (afterglow) between sweeps of the electron gun. A similar effect occurs in PDPs during their refresh cycles.7. What is the delicious website? What could you use it for?Delicious (formerly del.icio.us, pronounced "delicious") is a social bookmarking web service for storing, sharing, and discovering web bookmarks. The site was founded by Joshua Schachter in 2003 and acquired by Yahoo! in 2005. It has more than five million users and 150 million bookmarked URLs.[1] It is headquartered in Santa Clara, California.8. A tag cloud or word cloud (or weighted list in visual design) is a visual depiction of user-generated tags, or simply the word content of a site, used typically to describe the content of web sites. Tags are usually single words and are typically listed alphabetically, and the importance of a tag is shown with font size or color.[1] Thus both finding a tag by alphabet and by popularity is possible. The tags are usually hyperlinks that lead to a collection of items that are associated with a tag.JJackie HoukamauJ

software

1.Find a definition of software - copy and paste and say where your definition came from
The terms software and hardware are used as both nouns and adjectives. For example, you can say: "The problem lies in the software," meaning that there is a problem with the program or data, not with the computer itself. You can also say: "It's a software problem."
2.Explain what software is in your own words.
things that has other things to do with computers i don't really know what it is about because im not on the computer that much so yes thats pretty much all i know.
