Some people say this is accurate for all he has done for the world. Introducing the Iphone to the public was a risky one but it was a step that no human has tried before. Making a portable, multi-touchscreen phone, music player, with Internet, and a way to do all this at once was unheard of. Jobs did not do this all by himself though. He has a lot of help and many years to come up with this technology.
In what ways has it not been successful? Wikipedia is an open source collaborative online encyclopedia that changes every day says our text (Bowles 2010). And I do believe that Jimmy Wales had a great idea in starting Wikipedia. I know whenever I want to look something up, like an actor’s birthday, Wikipedia is the first website I search. The website has been successful because millions of people reference it every day, and even though it is not a credible source, it can lead you in the right direction.
The Wikipedian Advantage On January 15, 2011, a revolutionary idea took hold—to allow anyone across the globe the ability to contribute to an online encyclopedia. No one knew if the idea would catch on or how reliable the information submitted would be. However, it was probably never suspected that today the Wikipedia project would boast over 3.5 million articles in English with as many as 75,000 contributors and most importantly a 96% accuracy rating. That being said, criticism of the project, mostly by academics, is wide spread. They point to the inaccuracies and unreliability of the content produced, which in turn misinforms students.
Reaction “The Watchful Lab of Dr.Bell” From The New York Times, Feb. 16, 2014 By Natasha Singer As the electronic guy in my family, the article served me well with a lot of new informations and proofs. I try to be updated with the newest technology in the world so that I can expect the next technology, to be honest right now I don’t get surprised easily by the technology, I’m not sure why exactly, but maybe it’s because the lack of innovation. Now a days companies introduce a huge amount of smartphones, laptops, TVs, and all kind of technology, but none of them is revolutionary it’s almost the same but with one or two new features. When Dr.Bell went to examine how people act with their built-in technology in their cars I got exited because I’ll always argue with my cousins on this topic, they say it’s so cool to have a screen on the front desk or other kinds of entertainment devices inside the car. For me actually I was confused why people focus on the built-in entertainment services while they can do the exact same thing maybe even more on their smartphone?
Jr and Mahatma Ghandi or even our very own Economic leader in Dr. James Mwangi, but a simple dictionary meaning was beyond my comprehension. So I did the natural thing for an individual of my generation. I googled ‘Leader’ and this is what I concluded; A leader is an individual who is entitled to direct a group of people be it a something as large as a nation or even a tiny book club. It struck me then that it doesn’t matter the number of people designated into that group, it’s what you direct them towards that counts...this is usually driven by a cause, but more on that later. See…The great leaders that we adore and idolise in our modern industrial society are people who did, or are doing, things not for personal gain...no... but for the benefit of others.
We can cross over oceans in minutes. Technology even allows us to live completely isolated. Weaponry has advanced making war a whole new thing. Ideas can be transferred instantaneously making life incredibly easy and allowing people total comfort at home. The internet itself created millions of business opportunities and jobs, changing the economy drastically, but, what has technology done to families?
Nicholas Carr and Clay Sharkey debate whether or not the internet is actually making us smarter or dumber. “Never has a communications system played so many roles in our lives- or exerted such broad influences over our thoughts, as the internet does today. “that is one of Carr’s viewpoints. Shirkey believes that “every increase in paperback book to you tube, alarms people accustomed to the restrictions of the old system, convincing them that the new media will make young people stupid. This fear dates back to at least the invention of movable type.” I tend to agree more with Sharkey because there are a lot of learning toold we can gain from the web.

E -BUSINESS The founder of amazon.com studied the book market before choosing it as a starting place for amazon.com, but more importantly was his understanding of internet and willingness to invest in the latest internet technology to make shopping online faster, easier and more personally rewarding. Jeff Bezoz saw an opportunity that other booksellers couldn’t see, as observed in Business week “ what Bezoz understood before mostly was the ability of the web to connect almost anyone with any product , meant that he could do things that couldn’t be done in the physical world, such as selling 3 million books in a single store”. In a nut shell, Amazon.com gained the first mover advantage CONTINOUS INNOVATION Another success factor for amazon.com is the company’s ability to innovate. The words of saunders said that Amazon.com is “technology company” aside being a retail company. Bezoz knows that there are no sustainable technological advantages and it has to be an ongoing strategy.
