Steve Jobs Pressed F13- He Did the Impossible Steve Jobs was one of the harshest employers there ever was. Despite all of the hardships he faced, Steve Jobs revolutionized multiple industries in his life. From computers to movies, Steve Jobs helped reinvent them all. Most electronic devices today would not have been the same without this genius behind this huge company, Apple. Like many people, Steve Jobs had a difficult childhood.
Microsoft was formed as a partnership in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen, they started out as a small company and they envisioned that every home would eventually have a desktop computer (Microsoft, 2013). Little did they know how their little company would “take off” and revolutionize the world of computers and help put computers in virtually every home and business. Microsoft has even reached out globally, I have seen versions of windows in a third world country where there is barely any infrastructure. Although it was an older version of windows than what we use today it is still windows none-the-less. Gates and Allen’s vision starts to become a reality in 1980 when they enlist Steve Ballmer to help run the company.
Computer Science was offered for the first time in my school and there were only about 30 units in a school of 2500 students. At that time it was a box attached to a monitor that looked like a TV. The screen was dark with green characters. Since then, something that was just being introduced in society, beyond businesses, has totally changed how society operates. In our house we have five different PC systems.

Kirsten Laman ENGL 1301-61507 Professor Jackson 30 October 2014 Cognitive Effects of the Internet The book The Shallows by Nicholas Carr states that the introduction of the internet into society has had a profound effect on our culture. In other words, the internet has affected the way people think, read, and remember. The rapid access to tons of information has also affected people’s behavior making them less patient and less productive. According to Carr, “The Net commands our attention with far greater insistency than our television, or radio or morning newspaper ever did” (117). In today’s world, the internet has become essential to work, school and entertainment.
Media is causing us to do things without us knowing. The latest trend on media was the ALS ice bucket challenge. There were those the completed the challenge that understood the cause, there were those who donated, then there were those that did it just because everyone else was. Without taking the time to really think, theres gonna be much more followers than leaders. We need to lessen the social media use and start using our time to think and improve this world.
The result is that events occurring thousands of miles away can now have an almost immediate impact on us. Globalisation has many causes, some of them are; communications technology, mass media and cheap air travel. Held et al suggest the globalisation of crime has led to an increasing interconnectedness of crime across national borders; this has brought about the spread of transnational organised crime, creating new opportunities for crime and new means of committing crime. For example the computerisation of financial markets enables vast amounts of capital to be transferred each day from one side of the world to the other, with sometime devastating effects on national economies. Also, Manuel Castells (1998) argues because of globalisation there is a globalised criminal economy worth £1 trillion.

The Internet and Google are dominating the flow of the information through our eyes and ears to our brains. They are providing us with a huge amount of information by a way that is unprecedented in the history of mankind. I support Carr with his claim that Google is making us stupid because I think that after the invention of the Internet, human lifestyles have changed a lot; especially when they invented Google because it is the main search engine in the whole world, and people become completely dependent on it. Reading with focus is very important not only for the knowledge that we gain from the book author, but also in our minds for those spaces that bloom upon our minds from reading a book without focusing or meditating on the issue. For
In the past twenty years, the amount of change the internet has brought to the world and the American people is unparalleled in history. The phenomena of the internet and free information has sparked so much new technology, so many new ideas, and has broken down so many walls of communication and trading that it is a tidal wave of change. Because the internet is evolving and spreading so fast, many governments of the world have implemented censorship of the internet and many others might are doing the same. Most recently the U.S. is considering beefing up its own level of
