Narrative Evaluation

This site is very well organized but isnt a lagit site to me. In the site there is a bundle of bad information. This Martin Luther King site isnt bias at all either. There are many links to look at with this site to get a lot of information so there for it might be reliable to do some research. The overall structure of the website is well put.

hackers

To me hackers are people that break in to other peoples computers and look through all they private files. According to hackers they do it becaure they want to help out the internet. Or because they might be bored and want to challenge themselves. I think that the hackers are doing some good things for the internet but then agian doing some bad. I think this because they are trying to tell companys that it is not protected well enough. A bad is that they are still invading peoples secret stuff.

Test Question

One way to connect to the internet is dial-up. For this you have to have a modem. Advantages of dial up is that it is very unexpensive and easy to do. Disadvantages are that it the the slowest type of way to connect to the internet. Also you have to share a line with the neighborhood and that will slow it up.

Second way to connect to the internet is WI-Fi.WI-Fi is for people that live in rural areas. For WI-Fi the disadvantages are you will need a lot of equipment that will be very costly and if it rains or storms the connection will lag. Advantage of having WI-Fi are that it is the fastest way to connect.

Free

http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/alerts/freeispalrt.shtm

HIDE AND SEEK

This article about all the free hundreds of hours are true but they say that you would have to be on the internet for sixteen hours a day for one month only. When that one month is up then they automatically sign you up for their service if you do not cancel it. Also, they said that the providers hide the way to cancel. After one month people are going to be charged.

survey results

First of all, I am going to tell you about my survey that I have done. I interviewed a variety of people both male and female of different ages. I had asked veryone to define the internet, how muc h time they spend browsing the Web for work or school, entertainment or leisure, sending e-mail, chatting or instant messaging, playing games, dowloading music, software, or other files, creating and publishing their own Web pages, photos, or weblogs, comparing prices and looking for product information, and finally buying or selling items.

During my survey I found out that certain ages and genders do the same amount of time on the intenet. For instants the teenage women that I have interviewed spent a lot more time on the internet chatting or shopping. For the teenage men, they spend more time playing games or downloading music to listen to. People that were a little bit older that I interviewed didn’t really spend time on the internet for their own pleasure, they used the internet for their work.

I think that younger people use the internet becasue it is more common for kids to communicate on "AIM" than the telephone. Mostly every family has internet access so that is how most teenagers communicate. Adults on the other hand use the internet as more of a work station, for either work or other important things.
