11/2

Today's class we was working on the Google insights. This was one of my favorites and, to be honest, the most helpful class for me. Not that the other classes were not important, only because I am working on a business plan and this class help me a lot to find a new way to getter marketing information that I need. I am working on the chocolate industry and I was able to find some analyses that allow me to have a better and more clear picture of my target costumers and the location I am planning to open my business.

Today we had the opportunity to talk a little more about how information is shared. We talked about the conflicts that can happen when data is not archived in the same place. That make me think about how many times that did not happen is or daily life. We talked about the example of a company that tries to get the same room for different meetings. That can cried a lot of challenge and conflicts in a company because of lack of information sharing.

Day 31

Today we was able to look to Google Refine. A very powerful tool to refine data. I personal found many times challenge in understand data because different departments uses different terminology for the same word. For example, during my internship I did a project that was to create a global archiving system for the Investing Banking Division. It was very difficult for me to understand what information was being duplicated exactly because of that problem. Google Refine really will help a lot people and business to minimize a lot of this problem.

Day 28

Today we had the opportunity to talk about the social networking integration. Today was the only time we had the opportunity to log in in our Facebook accounts in class :)It really was create to be able to visualize many of the function that Facebook offers and the opportunity for marketing. I never knew that Facebook had such a powerful marketing segmentation system. It is amazing how specific I can market my costumers target through Facebook. Now I can understand how Facebook is making so much money and becoming such a powerful network side.

Day 21

Today we were able to talk about what we learned from the game we play in the past 2 days. It was interested how people learned different things. The first thing that came to my mind, was that the games really did help me to understand the technical terms of the material we study in this chapter. I thought that because during the game I had to do research, it made me understand the resources I need to develop a services and what a specific service is. However, I could see today that I was not the only person who felt the same way.

Day 25

Today in our class we learn how to create a simple webpage. What I love about was the fact that we can get really interesting application from the net, we do not really have to create so much. I loved the fact that we were able to get pictures, videos, and different founds to make our pages much more attractive. In the beginning I had a hard time knowing exactly were to put the codes and how to use it. But then, when you understand the logical behind it you fount it is pretty easy. Must of the time you only copy the html code and past :)
