PowerPoint? Magical? No way!

Watching Hans Rosling's PowerPoint presentation, I was very surprised at the ways he presented his information. He did a really good job, the graphs were understanding and he really explained them in a way that you wouldn't forget. His presentation is the only one i've seen where I actually didn't get bored during it. I was into his presentation the whole time. not only because of what it was mainly about, but how he was explaining the different reasons about our countries and the changes that were or are being made.When he brings up the Child Mortality within the countries, he tells the crowd not to panic and he'll help them get through the graph, it was difficult to understand at first glace, but as he explained it, it was easy to understand. He made his presentation unique which is what makes a good presentation. Any information you can get makes for a better presentation. Setting it up in a way that you can explain it to others so they can understand is even better.

Kindle talks?

It's hard to explain what exactly I think about the voice over Kindle because I have a Kindle fire, doesn't read to me, but it's nice to use when I want to use it. I would have to say that the voice reading to you part isn't my ideal thought at first, but once you actually get it and listen to it, I bet it's nice because then you don't have to read out loud yourself or read silently. But again, I honestly think it's an odd thing. Would you think a Kindle would ever be able to read to you? I feel as though it's a waste of money because why have something that reads to you when in school you are taught to read out loud or silently? I feel like technology now is starting to move people more into it rather than letting the schools teach them right. I have not heard of a lawsuit, but it really wouldn't surprise me if there was one because technology seems to be pushing its way into the eye of the kids. I don't think there really has to be a lawsuit, but why make technology that can talk for you while reading now? This is kind of a start to technology take over to me. What about playing movies on iPhones? Where is the lawsuit for that? What if I purchased a book online and it read aloud to me, where is the lawsuit for that? I feel like every new technology that's being made nowadays is becoming more and more copyright, it's like no one cares, they just want the money for the products sold. Technology is becoming a bit more ridiculous in a way.
