My Presentation

I made a presentation on Monday. It's about MODA-the world's first digital makeup 3D printer which is still in data. Personally I don't like to use makeup and really lazy to use it. MODA could help with my problem, only use finger to selected the red carpet look on it's APP then it will automatically sent to MODA divce. Then place your face into the MODA, which is equipped with a chin rest and forehead-rest. The device, then, scans the user’s face and applies the makeup, made from an FDA-approved, skin-safe concoction, all in thirty second. If the MODA machine is really come out I would like to buy one, then my boyfriend doesn't need to wait me one hour before we go out have dinner.LOL

Dot. com to Dot. bomb

When the internet commerce industry was in its infancy, many companies tried to get in on the ground floor and make $$$. The presentation in the class easily put these experiences that these companies went through into a tangible view. Watching dinosaurs lumber around, unable to get out of their own way, and being trampled by the smarter and more dexterous companies was an excellent way to demonstrate the dotcom to dot bomb experience. Seeing names of companies that no longer exist and the now adamantite encrusted companies that have risen to top enabled me to visualize the rapid change that industries go through. I compared this bubble and bust to the housing bubble, where it was buy buy buy even if the house was overpriced. Sooner or later the bubble bursts and you are left with economic destruction, and a change in the way companies do business.

3 Things I Would Not Buy Online

First of all I am a super big fan of buy things online. I have get almost 80% cloth that I bought them online. If I have to choose three things I would not buy, those might be cosmetics house and used car I wont buy cosmetics online. I have bought a fake brand eye shadow on amazon once beacause it was 5 dollar cheaper than it sell in Sephora and it was free shipping. Since that happened i wont but cosmetics online anymore. Second thing I would not buy is house. House is where you live could be a whole life, i want my house is prefect so i have to check it in person before I decide to buy it. Third thing that i would not buy is used car. There are some people sell their used car online just because it have some problem but they wont tell you. I think i wont pay before test drive that car.

I would say it was a wonderful experience!

EPIC Predictions

It was entertaining to see the predictions from about 10 years ago. Some were reasonable and even somewhat true, and others were quite funny to hear, such as, Googlezon. Below are some of the major predictions and realities that came from Epic. Reality: Tim Berners-Lee - Created World Wide Web Amazon - Created - 1994 Google - Created - 1998 Blogger - Created - 1999 Friendster - Created - 2002 Prediction: Googlezon - The merging of Google and Amazon never happened. Google Grid - The "grid" never happened, but google does allow quite a bit of file storage for free, for it users. New York Times - No more online paper, only to elderly or elites.
