Well this term is now over. Now that I have had to worst week ever making my blood pressure heart attack high and my stress level through the roof. So glad it is time for a break. Going to enjoy the time off with my family and lower my stress and BP of course. Bye bye for now all.

Synopsis of Google and App. Companies

Google Acquires Social Game, App Developer Slide
Here is another article that is related to this one so I am going to put both together.
Report: Google Buys Social App Designer, Slide

There are rumors going around that Google is developing a social network site to compete with Facebook. On the 5th of August Google confirmed there newly acquired social technology company Slide. Google will pay around "$228 million for Slide". They have also "invested $150 million in Zynga."

Google is looking for a way to bring family and friends closer together with fun and interesting information just for them. Slide they build online communities that are creative. With the merging of the two companies it will help bring social networking to a new level.

Slide created games and applications for Facebook, Myspace, Friendster, and other networking sites like Top Fish, Super Pocus Academy of Magic, SuperPoke Pets are just to name a few. Slide has "27 million" users in over "200 countries" per month.

There was a tweet from a "very creditable source" the confirmed the existence of Google Me which is the soon to be new social networking site from Google. However, the tweet was deleted; but, co-founder of Facebook stated that "Google Me is not a rumor."

From the looks of both of these articles Google has also invested in Zynga which has popular games like FarmVille, FronteiVille, and YoVille. Zynga also makes these games and many more for popular social network sites like Facebook and Myspace.

Week 8

Well I have finished all of week eights work. The game was fun to make just time consuming. I am definately going to keep that program on my computer and play with it later and make a different game. The access project was nice to have a tutorial for it cause access has a lot to remember and not my favorite one to use right now. That assignment was really time consuming as well but, I got it done.

Again this post was done right after the last one so the same thing will be done all weekend getting all of this work done for classes and studing for my exams.

Week 7

Well this week the part that is taking me the longest is coming up with questions for the interview of two people I have finished everything but that I am thinking up questions now of it and have been for 2 days. The power point assignment was pretty easy just time consuming. I liked learning about outlook. I now have outlook up and working for the first time ever because I never learned how to use it. I have it hooked up to my student email. However, I am still playing around with all of the other components.

This weekend my family and I are doing much of nothing. I am studying for a lab quiz, unit 3 exam and a final exam for next week in bio 232. I am also getting everything for this computer class done this weekend. I have a lot of practicing to do on excell though I tried the final practice and am having a hard time with the formulas but, the rest of it I am not having a problem with. I even decided to take and excell class next term to work with it some more.

Well that is it for this post. I am going to go and post to others posts.

Week 6

Wow, just realized this there is only 2 weeks left of this term. Well this week I used the 2007 access and that was new to me it was really interesting and I did learn from it. The part that took the longest for me to do this week was the assignements on access thank goodness there was tutorials on them all it help so much. Beings that I had no idea where to start on them.

This weekend my family and I did nothing but, go grocery shopping. We did try tonight BBQing a pizza and it was yummy. Let me tell you though it cooks really fast with a thin crust less the 5 min. My kids loved it too.

I get to study for my lab quiz in A&P tonight when I am done here. Then I get to study tomarrow for my 2nd exam. I really hope I pass this class it is really hard there was a lot to learn in the last chaper and the nervous system. This class was very informative though.

Well I am going to get off of here and start studying again so I can try and not fail this class.
