Paragraph on What my Webpage is!


Angela Moy
            The webpage that I will make is going to be on Korean Music groups and singers. The front page will have an introductory page about Korean Music and the list of idol groups that you can click on to see what members there are and some information about them. There would also be information about the groups and some of their achievements. There might be some usage of graphs that will be used for some of the names and their information. There would also be pictures that will show who the idol is. There will probably be well over 10 groups Korean groups with information on it. The group that will be most focused on will be Girls Generation since they are my favorite groups. On the front page I want to make a side bar where you can click on the groups you want to look on the information about.

Chapter 1 Blown to Bits Summary


In the world today, everything is made up of bits. Bits are the pictures we see on the internet, the information we find, and the radio waves we use to talk on the phone with each other. With technological advancement happening so quickly in such a short amount of time, everything getting sent around the world faster than one person can think. Technology has become a part of people’s everyday lives for most people, and for stores who need to store information and keep record of everything that happens. Bits are made up of everything you can think of relating to technology. There is something called the Koans of Bits, which is 4 principles that describe what bits are. The first Koan talks about the fact that everything is made of bits. All the information you see on the computer, calling from your phone, or playing video games. The second Koan talks about bits being perfect. Whenever you send something from one place to another on the internet, the file will send the same exact copy. It is very rare that there would be a mistake during the transfer of the file and the chances are very slim. The third Koan is that there are plenty of bits available everywhere now. Hard drives and memory storage are growing in incredible rates every year, having the capacity to store more and more bits in computers. The use of the internet has grown in incredible rates where sources and information is getting easier and easier to access. The fourth Koan is that processing is power. The power of processing has grown at incredible rates. The speed of processors has surpassed the Moore’s Law and has continue to increase in speed resulting in consumer goods going out faster than before. Another Koan about bits is that bits never go away. Bits can be stored and copied thousands of time on the internet. As storing information gets easier, the need to store more information is starting to show more on the internet. Bits can transfer and move faster than anyone could ever imagine. Information goes around faster than relaying it in the same city the information came from. Technology has both its perks and faults. It all depends on how you choose to use the technology and how you use it.In the world today, everything is made up of bits.
