Pictures paint thousand of words

 A idea, concept, thought proposal and many more (etc), can be presented easier with a picture, photograph, drawing, or any other visual representation. Showing a picture to explain something can be better than just words. This is the examples:

                In this image shows that the picture of a ice cream have many personality traits (many words).

The Power of Words

Words are powerful, each word has a meaning and it can be good or bad. Each word has a strength and weakness, it can create and to destroy and it can affect either positive or negative. Words have a strong impact in our daily lives.  It is use to communicate others using their languages. The people have disability to speak and to hear, he/she use word to communicate using hand gestures or “sign language”. It is use to protect and to defend ourselves.

We have a power to speak but we need to choose a word in a good way.

What makes multimedia click? Why is it such a big trend?

Multimedia is the use of computers to present or to show video, graphics, animation, sound, images and text in an integrated way. Multimedia have many applications or usage like commercial, education, research, industry, medicines, fine arts and entertaining and many more.

 People are interested to the multimedia because they are good for establishing personal contact, to entertain and it makes easier to understand like for example in education, the teachers use broadcast lectures or presentation and demonstrating techniques using video for their students to easily to understand. For commercial, they advertise their products, service or items to entice people to buy.

How will entire Philippine we communicate in 10 years?

Maybe! But I think the scientists and the technology enthusiasts are invent a better communication gadgets than previous communication gadgets like cellphones, laptop, tablet and etc. or to communicate  each other using 3D holography (hologram) technology.

It still use the new media for communicating in ten years. I do not know what will happen to our country or world if the technology will vary. But don’t forget to use old media and use the new media in the right way.

Is the Philippine technologically updated? Yes or No? Explain.

     Yes, because for we do not latter in technology in our country. Reached as far as the technology of the world today but still remained the Philippines. But, we all know that here in the Philippines, we are not too technologically advanced. There is a hope on the technology in our country, much as the able contributions of Filipino scientists and technology enthusiast but it is not easy to process. 

     We need to change and should have informed the people and the whole nation about the situation of our country in the aspects of technology to help us both Filipinos and to have the same level in terms of technology in the other country.

My thoughts on internet usage in Asia

     Internet user is an individual who can access the Internet, via computer or mobile device, within the home where the individual lives. Internet is becoming more and more important for nearly everybody as it is one of the newest and most forward-looking media and came in our life with many comforts in different aspects of life. The Internet changed our life enormously, there is no doubt about that. It is very useful to others like communicating or conversation using online social network like for example, Facebook, Twitter, Blogger and etc, searching using Google, Online Gaming and many more activities using internet.

   Asia is the Earth's largest and most populous continent, located primarily in the eastern and northern hemispheres. Asia is the most active internet user in a world. In year 2012, Asia have 44.8% of internet usage.
 According to this site : http://www.internetlivestats.com/internet-users/, Asia have 48.4% Internet user by region (as of July 1, 2013). 

For me, Internet is the most powerful because we knows all like chatting, blogging and etc. but don't forget to use "Hanguang Sekundarya" for examples books, dictionary, encyclopedia, almanac, magazines, newspapers and etc. and don't forget to make a mail :)

Coping with power outage and calamities through Communication and Technology

     The first 72 hours following a natural disaster are critical. This window of time is when emergency responders are most able to save lives, and when swift assessments of damage are urgently needed. Communication in this period is essential to facilitate the flow of information between governments, communities and humanitarian organizations. A disaster situation with a severely disrupted telecommunication infrastructure magnifies chaos and uncertainty. Poor communication between responders can severely hamper assessment and relief efforts, and prevent affected populations from connecting with responders and relatives. The resulting rise in ad-hoc and uncoordinated communication methods further complicates the emergency response. 

     Mobile communication networks are the pre-eminent way for an affected population to communicate with the world in and beyond a disaster zone. Although utilised before, the power of mobile became particularly evident in the aftermath of the 2010 Haitian earthquake which saw a proliferation of new coordination and response strategies that were built around this platform. The mobile phone and in particular voice calls are people’s primary method of communication in a disaster. As mobile communication becomes ubiquitous and its role in disaster response increases, a renewed commitment to creating robust mobile networks that can support effective communication during this period is essential.

     The GSMA Disaster Response Programme will engage in a two-tiered programme that seeks to understand how mobile operators can most effectively support each other and improve resilience among networks in disaster scenarios, and to identify how the mobile industry can best help citizens and humanitarian organisations on the ground following a crisis. The Coordination Work Stream will focus its efforts on addressing the challenge faced by operators in managing relationships with, and requestsfrom, humanitarian response organisations. It will explore the growing role of mobiles and Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) in disasters, and create strategies to maximise their participation in responding to emergencies. The working groups will work towards achieving improved standards of practice, accountability, coordination and support for disaster-affected populations and the humanitarian response community.

     The Technical Work Stream will focus on the technical challenges faced by MNOs before, during and after disasters. It will provide a forum for mobile operators to discuss issues and work toward industry cooperation. The working groups will contribute to the creation of a live blueprint that will evolve to suggest practical methods operators can use to improve their coordination, preparedness, resilience and ability to respond to the disasters specific to their locations. This discussion document presents the intention of the GSMA Disaster Response Programme in proposing key technical challenges faced by MNOs before, during and after disasters. It aims to open a discussion about which challenges are most important and to pave the way for creating and implementing working solutions.With the participation and commitment of the GSMA membership, this document will evolve into alive,regularly updated blueprint for addressing these challenges, implementing solutions and developing industry-wide standards that will improve the reliability, durability and effectiveness of the mobile network in a disaster.

         Calamities are affects to others because the electricity is temporary power outage (or also called a power blackout). We can't communicate people because their cellphones are no signals or might also battery low. We can still communicate/listen through radio to figure out what's going on or to know when the disaster fade away or not. But we do not know when power go back on. Although, we can't communicate to others, we need to be alert and be careful in the disaster. Be safe!
