So, chapter 2 was about the internet. Now, obviously I know how to use but I didn't know that there was a difference between the internet and the world wide web. That was really interesting. I had also heard that the internet was developed in the 1960's but it had not been confirmed for me until now. I do wonder what it must have been like back then though. Of course it was nothing like it is now. Users did not even have any GUI.
Since last time, I now know how to use inspiration. Before, I had never even heard of the program let alone use it but it really is a good teaching tool. It would be good to help a teacher organize their own notes or it could be used as a handout for students to help them learn how to organize main ideas and supporting details.
I am surprised at how much technology, especially the internet, is used here at FSU. Back in my high school and even in the community college at home, we never used technology to the extent FSU uses it. We never had school issued e-mails. Our instructors would have e-mails but they were often their personal e-mail. We had nothing even close to Blackboard. We still received announcements from the instructors verbally and handed in hard copies of our papers on the due date. It hasn't been hard to adjust to the stuff at FSU like Blackboard but I am impressed by it.

Welcome to the world of technology!!..I am glad to hear that you are not overwhelmed by it.
Try to give space between your paragraphs, it would do well for the general aesthetics of your webpost.
I agree with what Jen had to say about the internet and world wide web. Technology is a great tool to use and take advantage of in the classroom.
I agree with the fact that i have not used anywhere near this amount of technology in school before. I really like it though and think that it makes things easier to do.
