I do not agree that computers are a waste of time and money. Many things are being done on computers these days and a lot of money and time goes into computers for companies. Schools can teach kids how to read and write while using computers to teach them about technology and how important it is.

In the article “Wondering About Ads” Karl Fisch explains about how he has been thinking about experimenting with ads on the blog. He explains that he will use Google AdSense and Amazon Affiliates to advertise and that all the funding from the ads will go to his school (Arapahoe High school). Using these ads would be a very effective way of letting the whole world knows who he is and what he is about and that could have a large affect on the world. Also if all the money he makes goes to my school that will have a huge affect on me and education because it will help give the school more funding. I think using ads with the blog is a good idea. What do you think?

In the article "Shift Happens Statistic of the Day 12-2-09" Karl Fisch talks about how, in 1979, GM (General Motors) employment peaked at 618,365, but the employment at GM is at 70,000 and falling very quickly. He states that this is about an 88% decline in American jobs at GM in 30 years, but he also states that it is only a 60% decline in market share. The government has spent a lot of money bailing out GM and this could have a very large affect on the world and on my future because I will be paying to bail them out again because if they got all that money from the government and their employment rate, then that’s not good. How do you think this affects you?
