World Wide Web

 The technology of the World Wide Web is evolving continuously and unpredictable. To estimate what the future of WWW looks like is not so clear and certain. However, I can say that since the technology evolves every second the only certain thing is that It will get people's lives easier and easier.
 What is 'the Cloud'? The storage and the power of computing for all the Web sites and services are provided by the Cloud Services. This means people can save something- for example in their dropboxes- and share it whenever they want. As they mentioned in the article The Windy City Teams with Microsoft on Cloud Strategy "For most cloud computing applicatons, the entire user interface resides inside a single window."
 The project Cyberbetic Friend looks like so crazy and sophisticated. When we search for the thing that we do not know exactly on google, our Friend can help us to achieve the best result."Google can combine the personalized recommendations of a friend( who often know us betten than we know ourselves) with the sum of all of human knowledge,creating a super sort of best friend.
This friend of yours, this cybernetic friend,that knows that you that have scertain questions about certain health issues or business strategies. And it can be then be canvassing all the information that comes out in the world every minute and then bring thing to your attention without you asking about them " I think this is what we nees as a user.

A Piece of Introduction :)

 I'll let you to know me a little in this post.. I was born in Istanbul which is the city of dreams... I can not imagine living anywhere else except Istanbul. The city affects you with its rich history, fascinating nature-especially with the Bosphorus-, and hospitable people. Since I like taking photographs, It is an amazing place to live that I can find many things to take photos :) What else other than taking photographs? I have never cooked anything before coming to Chicago. I am trying to cook something new for me. Actually, I am not bad at cooking, I have had many successful meals here :)
 What about my education? After graduating from highschool,I attended to Kadir Has University in Istanbul.This is my 3rd year in Computer Science major. I love my department but I really don't know which branch I will deal with in the future: programming, networking, marketing.. Since I could not decide any of them, I've chosen to improve my English first, which is a requirement for me. Then, I am now here,in Chicago, the Windy City.

 To be honest for the question "How do you feel a course can effectively integrate blogs?", It is one of the best way to attend a course via blogs. This way encourages all the students since we live in a technology era. Nowadays, everyone express their feelings, declare their thoughts via social media. They read and learn somethings from internet easily. As long as a course integrate with blogs, learning and sharing somethings can become more fun and effecient instead of being in a classroom without doing anything while someone is speaking. I think, It makes students happier.
