Essay


Why do i love tumblr?

One day surfing on the internet I found something that became a new way to express myself, Tumblr. It’s a microblogging platform where you can post whatever you want, from texts and quotes to videos, music and pictures. You also can talk to people from all around the world, and meet amazing people.

The better thing of this platform is that you are able to express yourself in many different ways. The most used is photography. You can find amazing and really expressive pictures. Even lots of people only reblog pictures that they like, there are many people that have a photography blog and upload there their own pictures. Also there are bloggers that, with pictures they found around the internet make great collages adding texts and backgrounds. Other thing really characteristic of tumblr is the gif. There are lots of them and also many people make them. And that isn’t all, you can also post texts, quotes, chats, music and videos. These types of posts aren’t really used to make a blog only of them but most of the photography bloggers use this kind of posts sometimes.

The other awesome reason because I use tumblr is because you can meet great people. You can talk to people in many different ways, answering their posts and questions, joining their chats and sending them fan mails and messages to their ask box. I’ve meet nice people from all around the world and we’ve talked about photography, travelling, music and many things more.

So I think that if you like finding new things and surfing on the internet you should create a tumblr blog. You will be able to express yourself posting many different things, and you will talk to lots of people from all around the world.

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.

SoundCloud

The last speaking class, Peter presented his power-point about SoundCloud

SoundCloud is an online program where you can upload and download music. Also you can listen other people's music, coment songs and follow groups or people. I have an account and I think it's very nice and a good way to discover new groups and music.
