Moores Law Paper

In 1965 a man named Gordon Moore co founder of intel made an observation that the number of transisters per square inch on an integrated circute (microchip) had doubled every year sense it was invented. It has slowed down a little bit to about every 18 months. It has been like this for 40 years.

There was a camera in the 70s that was called a kodak 110. It had a little square flash bulb that had to be replaced often. After taking the pictures you would remove the 110 cartridge and drop it off at the drug sore. You would go pick up your photos 7 days later. The next camera they came out with was the poloride instant camera. Poloride cameras can be classified by the film they use. Film has changed in size, shape, form, and style so much over the years. Before these there where big cameras that were exspensive and hard to move. Wealthy people were usually the people that could use them because they were not cheap. Now cameras are easy to use. You look through the hole and push a botton. They are also very portible. You can take them with you were ever you need to go. They even have water proof cameras to go swimming with. They are still pretty exspensive but you can keep them and take them with you every were. I think phortography has changed in a lot of good ways over time.

This affects people like me. If it was all still the same I probably would not have pictures and couldnt remember all the memories my pictures hold. Im glad I have a camera that I can take with me were I go and can keep all the pictures to remember things by.

The Fox website:


I chose this web site because it has a lot of costumers that visit it. The way this website is laid out is really creative and the things it contains are important.
LIKES:
All the cloths are in a line with the prices at the bottom, the slide show of a couple new things they have on the home page, the left column has all the categories that they offer. You can choose what to shop by, the search box on the top right hand corner, the phone number clear and on the top, the bottom tool bar. It has lots of options and help. Pictures, when you clique on a category every type of clothing comes up in its own category, organized, I also like the props the used in the pictures. It made them look more put together. These things are very convenient when it comes to shopping costumers.
DON’T LIKE:
I think the designer of the website could have put some more color on the on the background of web site to made it more interesting and presentable.

What I would bring into my blog:
I would bring organization. The fox clothing website was very organized, the left side of this website has all the options and categories that you would need to search. It is very helpful when it comes to looking for a certain product. I will make my blog look interesting and appealing to the eye, with creative and colorful designs.

WHAT I’M NOT GOING TO PUT IN MY BLOG:
I’m not going to bring in pointless postings that don’t have a purpose, I will make sure everything fits together, colors, facts, and designs.

CONCLUSION:
Seeing other company’s websites inspires me to make mine the right way. When I see things I don’t like then I will make sure to leave those things out. I will consider different ideas from a few of my friends to

The Mosque

I almost got to go to the Mosque. I however was busy that day. I wanted to go so bad!!!!! I was super upset when i couldn't. I'm sure there will be other times i can go but I dont want to wait. They went on a special day so the people who belonged to the temple were saying all these prayers that were memorized and stuff. You had to were a scarf over your hair and things like that. The Mosque is an Islamic temple. I cant wait until i can go. Hopefully it is soon. . .

Halloween

Halloween was fun. I dressed up and hung out with some close friends. It was a pretty mellow night. People come up with really creative costumes. I saw so many cute ones. I think next year im going to be a cow girl or a ninja. Its kind of fun to still dress up. Although Halloween is kind of just a way for stores to make money with people buying decorations and costumes and candy. I dont think it has any real meaning. Its fun for kids though. Its kind of funny people always say dont take candy from strangers but then Halloween comes and they are probably so confused.

The Hindu Ganesha Temple

The other day i got to go to the Ganesha temple. It was amazing!! I loved it. That is one of my favorite things to do is learn about other religions and cultures. It is so interesting to me. The temple i went to is Hindu. The things they do are really different and some times hard to understand the meaning of what they are doing. Everyone who came and was Hindu brought an offering of food. It was a special day for one of the gods. They would take a portion of the food and pour it on the god. They bring around the rest of what was in the bottle or container that the food came from that they offered the god. If you ate it then in your next life you would come back to earth as a human. It was really cool. I cant wait tell we get to go to the Catholic church and the Islamic temple.
