Pentagon's New Map for War and Peace

This TED talk was very different but interesting this week. It's not what I expected, but it caught my attention as I progressed along with the talk. I totally agree with Thomas Barnett and the things that he mentioned. I don't think that it is right neither to send a 19 year old out for war, where he/she is out there fighting almost everyday, putting their life in jeopardy, then be expected to make peace. Thomas made this TED talk very interesting with his sense of humor andthe way the said things with his sense of humor. The jokes that he made was funny but at the same time they had a truthful meaning to them. He actually used comparison with war, peace, and his own personal jokes. I also totally agree with the saying, "Don't plan for war if you don't plan to win the peace".

Jeff Han: Unveiling the genius of multi-touch interface design

This TED Talk was also interesting to me. It's pretty cool what the multi-touch interface can do. I think it would work great in the school system for kids who knows what he/she is doing and how to use it. It would probably make things easier for some and difficult for others. This might just end the point-and-click mouse, which would be better to me. I know I could, but maybe others too could finish school work in a timely fashion. It wouldn't take as long to type a paper or design a web page, etc. You could actually pull up multiple screen with one touch of the finger, zoom-in, zoom-out, etc.

William Kamkwamba: How I built my family a windmill

This TED Talk was pretty interesting. William talked about how he first started his plan for his windmill, and what he used to make it. It seemed like it took a lot of work and time, but also it seemed cool to build a windmill. The windmill that William made was an electrical-generator windmill. It operates 4 bulbs and 2 radios for his family. He also mentioned that he wanted to buli another one for the crops in ventile village which would take more volts to build. He first built his windmill when he was 15 and now he is 19. What an achiever!

MySpace/Social Networking

My personal experience about Myspace/Social Networking is easy. I visit this website everyday at least 5 times a day. It's fun, I mainly like to communication with family and friends. On this website you have your own page and you can decorate it however you please. I think a lot of people like myspace because you can pick your fiends and even meet new friends.

David Bolinsky: Fantastic voyage inside the cell

Doing this TED talk, I say a lot of things that made me think. Looking deeply inside the cell is crazy. I never knew that the inside of our cells in our body performed the things that it did. Bolinsky mentioned in his TED talk that one day everything will actually be figured out and then peoples health could be managed better. I do believe him. There is a day when a very smart scientist will figure the inside of the cell out completely.
