OAD Week 2 Blog

Today in class I learned about the scanner and digital camera. We also did a little bit more with social networking and I discovered Twitter. Since every digital camera is a little bit different, I had to adjust to the one used in class, which went very well. I then had to upload my picture onto all of my social networking sites. The last piece of technology was the scanner and I learned all the different ways to scan items.

The digital camera can be used mostly in my personal life. However, by uploading a professional picture on my social networking sites, it could attract an employer. The scanner will be very helpful with all my paperwork. It is very useful when you do not have an electric copy of a document and you can also edit imperfections.

Social networking will be important in my future job. Networking is a great way to get a job and it is very helpful to have a professional site to sell yourself. It is nice that I got to learn about the scanner in class because I always look forward to adding more skills to my resume. It is much easier when you know more of the technology that offices use today.

For next class, I need to tweet about social networks, podcasting, or OneNote. I chose to tweet about OneNote since I am not as familiar with it. I will also be reading in the OneNote book to understand it a little bit better before class. I also need to prepare my second podcast. The podcast will be between 3 and 5 minutes on either a vacation I took, my favorite hobby, or my favorite TV show.
