Today in class (day 9)

Today in class Mr. Schick continued to go over the questions we finished a few days ago. During this process, we we learned more statics about the world today. Such as they're 7,021,836,029 people in the world. In the future we will have more and more people which may lead to some problems. Such as, we could have a less supply of fresh water and food. This could to lead to having more issues and more deaths. We also watched a video called "Did you know 3.0". This video was mostly made of statistics of the world today. One thing that was very interesting to me was "1 out of 8 couples married met online" This is a very interesting statistic that shows technology is a big part of our lives. Many people have used the Internet as a resource to make something of themselves. Such as becoming a singer, dance, artist, etc. Now people are using it to meet people and fall in love. The Internet hasn't been around for over 30 years and it has really changed the world. We find information by the Internet and it has really changed the world. Even though the Internet is a good thing, it can also be a bad thing. Child predators can seek out teenagers over a "chat room" This tool may be used for good, or bad. Another interesting fact I learned from the video was "If Facebook was a country it would be 3 (behind China and India)" This means that they're are more people on Facebook then the United States! This really shows are 1 website can become widely popular! It also means never underestimate your self. Mark Zuckerburg had passion and determination and the result of it was a very popular website. Not only is it popular in America but it's in over 70 languages! A threat that Facebook has is bullying. A big trend is "cyber bullying" and because Facebook is very popular it also means there is a more chance to get bullied. Just by a simple message someones day could instantly ruined. People also take their own lives because of cyber bullying. The Internet is a useful source, but it also can be a big threat.
