MarvinSketch

Today, Ana made her first presentation for our speaking class. 











It was about MarvinSketch, is a chemical structure drawing tool. MarvinSketch in particular has been popular with free structure-searchable databases.
I think this program is not very useful.


Spotify

Today Peter made his speaking class about Spotify. He explained us a few things about the program and it's utilities and then we discuss about the pros and cons. I think a pro is that you can discover new music but ther's a con, you can't own that music. That con started another discussion: what do you prefer, to own your music or it's ok just listen to it. I think it's much better to own your music and be able to listen to it everywere.

GPS


This class we spoke about the GPS (Global Positioning System). Kike made a presentation about it explaining us the different uses that the GPS can have. A very original one was to use it to find a "treasure" that is hidden in a amazing place with beautiful landscapes. But I think the most useful one is to use it to look how to go to any place when you are, for example, traveling.

CAD

On this speacking class, Diego spoke about CAD.


CAD (Computer-Aided Design) is the use of computer technology for the process of design and design-documentation. It describes the process of drafting with a computer. This software provides the user with input-tools for the purpose of streamlining design processes.
I think CAD is a very useful program.
