Module 13


                                                                                  What I've learned

I took this class not knowing what to expect from it. I don’t blog and don’t like writing very much so that part was a little awkward for me but after reading the book and sharing with others the way I saw every module and getting to read their point of view was actually great.

I like computers and everything that has to do with them but to be honest I did not know a lot about globalization, workflow software or how a dell was made and I had no idea how important it is to stay at par with technology.

I really enjoyed reading "A Logic named Joe"  it was very entertaining and at the same time help open our eyes about the power we give to computers. It made think of all the things people share on social media on a daily basis and how we all we do can be tracked by the way we use the computers,This has made think twice before posting on Facebook  Reading about GNR was a little scary, to think of the things we could be facing on a near future, I might not face it myself but maybe my daughter will. Makes me think what kind of world we will have then and how people could be close to useless if we don’t do something about it. It was good to know that there is a lot of people out there with the same thoughts.

Friedman's concept that the world is flat is true. We can see it everyday and everywhere we go. The way we communicate with others not only has helped business all over the world but also all of us as individuals. It is true that we are giving too much power to computers ,relying on them for almost everything but I believe that the more we fear the more power they will have over us. We have to accept that the world is all about technology now and just stay at par with it.
