Here it is my first blog

Here is the blog page we had to create for the Communication Technology class.
Wednesday is a snow day No class.

Tuesday in class we discussed  Digital Distribution the practice of distributing media without the use of physical media.
 Also discussed was e-mail what are some of the activities you can do with an e-mail. You can filter e-mail, spam block, insert emotions, reply to a single person or reply to all, forward, delete, mark as read, spell check, move, print, find by subject,  find by sender, and automatically enter a signature to your e-mail, check e-mail for viruses, mark as read, set importance.

We also discussed what is frustrating about e-mail. Like etiquette, to much e-mail, to many jokes on email, not knowing when the email is coming, spam, passwords. More discussion on being careful on the words you choose e-mail is permanent, and who is reading your e-mail. E-mails from most businesses is public record. Do not write something you would not want you supervisor to read. Use good punctuation, grammar. Include a subject, greeting, and closure. Do not write everything in UPPERCASE it is considered shouting. No need to shout. If the e-mail is important flag it before sending so the recipient knows it's importance. Be careful in replying to an e-mail reply to all may not be appropriate. Last but not least lock you computer when leaving your work space, you never know who may walk by.

Next week activities LP2 6  9 thru 14.
