Wikileaks & Anonymous

 Some days ago, we talked about Wikileaks, Anonymous and all this things and I think it had been a interesting speaking class.

WIKILEAKS is an international, online, self-described not-for-profit organisation that publishes submissions of private, secret, and classified media from anonymous news sources, news leaks, and whistleblowers. 

It was created by Julian Assange in October 2006.

The WikiLeaks website says their goal is "to bring important news and information to the public... One of our most important activities is to publish original source material alongside our news stories so readers and historians alike can see evidence of the truth."

I think that Wikileaks is doing a good jobb and doesnt do anything bad to us, it want to show the truth to everyone.

Mars speaking class, Twitter.

Mar today has talked about Twitter.
Twitter is an online social networking service and microblogging service that enables its users to send and read text-based posts of up to 140 characters, known as "tweets". It was created in March 2006 by Jack Dorsey and launched that July. The service rapidly gained worldwide popularity, with over 300 million users as of 2011,[6] generating over 300 million tweets and handling over 1.6 billion search queries per day.[3][8][9] It has been described as "the SMS of the Internet."

It has over 300 million users.

We think that is an interesting program for people who want to know or learn about things of other countries or people, but we wont make an acount now. 

Peters and Anas speaking class

Peter has talked about Spotify yesterday.
Spotify is a program in internetwere you can listen to music. There are 2 different versions of Spotify,the free one and the one were you have to pay.If you dont pay you cant download music and you can listen to it only on your computer.
We think that it isnt such a good program because you cant own the music you only can listen to it and there arent some important groups like THE BEATLES.

Anas has talked about MarvinSketch, this is a program for phisics.

MarvinSketch is an advanced chemical editor for drawing chemical structures, queries and reactions
Things you can do:
1.Chemical structure drawing
2.Reaccion drawing
3.Query drawing
4.Atom and Bond properties
And many other things but its complicated and to much to explain, we think that its a quite interesting program for those people who need it.

Diego tallked about vector lines.

A portion of the vector field (sin y, sin x)

In vector calculus, a vector field is an assignment of a vector to each point in a subset of Euclidean space. A vector field in the plane for instance can be visualized as an arrow, with a given magnitude and direction, attached to each point in the plane. Vector fields are often used to model, for example, the speed and direction of a moving fluid throughout space, or the strength and direction of some force, such as the magnetic or gravitational force, as it changes from point to point.

Bad things about Google

Google is a very big company with many services for everyone. It seems a good internet company with many good and different aplications and services, but one important thing is the pictures and information that someone uploades in google are very insecure and many people can see or read them.
And Google manipulate the order that we read things when we search for them. An example would be if you are a doctor and you want people to search for you and find you the first in google, you have to pay for it and be on of the firsts search results, and otherway if google dont want you in Google , you will be invisible in Google.
