Scavenger Hunt!!!

Our scavenger hunt internet assignment was quite the task. Looking at the internet you can pretty much find anything & everything therefore this made you think things through real well on some of the questions being asked. Our group worked great together and tried hard to answer each task effectively however there was one particular task that stumped us. Alltogether it was much more than I originally anticipated and can say that I really enjoyed the challenge!

What is Convergence???

The word convergence has several definitions when looked up however there is one particular one that revolves around technological value. Its meaning is the idea of technologies, industries, & devices merging into eachother as a whole or simplification of the two. So when asked what a concept of convergence might be? An individual can stop and think of how this has occured, for a simple example we can think about cellular phones. Can you think of something that has converged with cell phones? How about a camera, mp3 player, or even a navigation system. All three of these technologies can be found on cellular phones therefore representing a simplification or a whole amount of devices put together.

Physical documents Vs. Digital documents

It was only a few decades ago that majority of records were kept on file through physical documentation but with the help of technology we are able to have greater capacity & efficiency with both storing and saving documents. This is done by creating documents digitally, everything from written text to pictures & music can be stored through a computer which is one of the many ways that you can create digital documents. However there will always be one specific difference between the two types and that has to do with there existence, physical documents exists and are an object which can be touched versus digital documents which are non-existent and have no physical form.
