Exciting Unpredictable Emerging Technology of the Future



        Technology exists in every thing that we see and encounter in our everyday lives. We might not be aware of it but it is technology. For the past years, technology has been rapidly developing from being the simplest to the most complex tool being used today, and still keeps on evolving to satisfy the growing need of a person.

            From the seminars I attended during my EM-TECH class, I have learned a lot from some of the emerging technologies currently available such sa the e-Health, Android, MAMS(Media Assets Management System), and SAP. Although, some of them were still unclear to me, but I know that these technologies were made and developed for the convenience of the end user. I hope I could attend more of these seminars so that I could be more aware of the existing technologies I might use for my everyday life.

            During those times, there is this one question that I always ponder about. What other technology will be available in the future for us, people, to use? Maybe, I am not the only one who wants this question to be answered and I definitely know that forever is not enough to satisfy this question. For the reason that development of new technologies is another thing that is constant aside from change.

            I can say that technlogy is quite unpredictable, we will never know what technology will be created in the future. It might be good or bad for different person but there is one thing that I am sure of and that is emerging technology is a never-ending process of wanting and satisfying a need.

Top 3 Best and Worst Android Applications I've Played

BEST ANDROID APPS
1) Angry Birds
- Yes, this is just a simple game but this game is really addictive because it makes you think on how to destroy all the green pigs using the birds. Come to think of it, many people are becoming addicted to this game because it has this element that makes people excited go to the next level for more difficult challenges. It's also easy to understand the objective of the game even for first timers.

2) Plants Vs. Zombies
- Before, I was like what "Plants Vs. Zombies", I said that would be a really boring game. But then I tried playing it and made me stayed on it for hours just to finish the game. It's really amazing because it challenges your strategy on how you will defend the house from zombies using plants. It's just a simple but great idea that made it very addictive. I had fun playing the game.

3) Fruit Ninja
- When I was a child, I had a dream to become a ninja and this app made my dream come true even though it's just in the mobile app world. This app is even more exciting because you want to get the highest score among your peers. Slicing fruits using your fingers is so great. You can also play with two players with this game that made it more exciting because you play with your friend at the same time.

WORST ANDROID APPS
1) Tic-Tac-Toe
- Yes, Tic-Tac-Toe is boring for me because sometimes this game has an infinite loop of ties and no one is winning the game.


2)Basketball Shot
- Basketball is a great game, however it's best played in game consoles like xbox, playstation 3, and the like. In a mobile application you cannot control the basketball at your best that's why i consider it as one of my worst app.

Summary Report of Elective Fans' Disaster Wiki Site

OBJECTIVES:
1) To be able to provide useful information about natural disasters, that can help other people to be more updated about what is currently happening on their environment.

2) To collaborate and share ideas, about the said topic, that will result in creating new ideas or solution that people may follow and perform before, during, and after a natural disaster.

3) To gather many reliable/credible resources, about the said topic, that will help enrich the knowledge of the people.

OUTCOMES:
1) We were able to gather credible sources from the internet which we will be using to populate the information we will be providing people about recent and past natural disaster occurrences, and the do's and don'ts before, during and after natural disasters.

2) We were able to create a Disaster Wiki site where people can share their information with regards to natural disasters, experiences they had with natural disasters, and other related information.

3) We were able to see positive and negative areas of the Disaster Wiki site so as a group, we think of a better way to enhance this positive areas and address to those negative areas we sought, especially the credibility of a source.

Disaster Wiki -- As a group, we are able to use this collaboration tool in order for us to share information about natural disasters. This Wiki site can also be used as a source for recent and past occurrences of a natural disaster such as earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, and alike. Also, it will contain information on what we should do before, during, and after a natural disaster which we find beneficial to everyone as they will be informed on the do's and don'ts we should consider following. The best thing about this Disaster Wiki is that everyone can edit parts from the site to expand the information the site currently offers. As a result, giving more vivid information for people to read and comprehend. However, other fraudulent sources may look as beautiful as a credible source so as moderators of the Disaster Wiki site we should be able to sort out and disregard sources that we believe as not being beneficial to readers.
