Guest Speaker: Erik Hanburg


We had a guest speaker, Erik Hanburg. Erik Hanburg showed us how a humble person who works hard from starting from his industry and slowly rose to own his grand cinema really is inspiring to someone like me who does not know which direction life is taking me so far. Erik talks about the risks that he took and it shows that the journey to success is not something that is just handed to everyone but you need to be able to offer your own comfortable for something you want. Erik is a smart business person but also a writer which shows he very versatile in situations as a writer he was about to publisher books and as well as sell them on Amazon but he did not just stop there but even started to do audio books too to increase his sell on books. Erik is someone that would have a knew skill every time you run into him because he also understand technology which show when he takes precautions but also understanding social media, using blogs, Facebook and other social media outlets to promote his content. Which leads to the question of privacy when using the internet. Erik mentions that the privacy we have for everyone is the best we will get which can be bad or could be a topic for question, maybe someone will think that everyone should have better security and privacy and be able to create an app that prevents privacy issues. One thing I do know is that Google had regulated permissions for apps to always ask if you give consent for the app to be able to use the microphone, camera or other features on your phone when first installing the app, but does this mean we are secretly monitored? Big Brother anyone?

There have been times when iCloud a software of Apple has been hacked into due to bugs and/or exploits which people’s information were stolen and pictures so is it really something you could trust? We had a guest speaker today who goes by the name Shadrach White. The way Shadrach White talked about clouds in general if you did not know about the iCloud incident you would think that it very secure besides the fact that they pay other people to try to hack into their cloud that way they could be fix the exploit. Google does something similar as they pride themselves being hard to hack so they challenge anyone to try to hack them and if you succeed you have a high likely chance that they will hire you. Now back to Shadrach, he is the founder of CloudPWR and as the founder he was very knowledge in the area around clouds and even telling about one of the services they provide is Airlift which helps new people w

Startup.com showcases the struggle two or should I say three friends faced when trying to startup their own company by first starting their own website which would handle any interactions you would need if you needed to contact your local government in regard to paying a ticket or fine. Tom Herman, Kaleil and Chieh Cheung are the founders but seeing that Chieh was not contributing much to the company, Tom and Kaleil bought Chieh’s share of the company, so the three musketeers became the two musketeers. The documentary is very insightful showing how hard it is to start a company, showing how they started the struggles they faced along the way and just how it was difficult starting a company with friends. There was a problem Tom and Kaleil and it showed they each had an idea of the company’s future but each idea was different so for them to pitch two different ideas hoping for investors to invest into the company made it a lot more difficult, since it gave an impression that the founder

What I Expect From This Class Source : https://giphy.com/gifs/sauce-explains-szechuan-KCGalXq3ppAFq Technology is evolving at a rapid pace. There will always be something better the next year, learning about technology and seeing how fast it evolved is interesting in the fact that it was so long ago that we used to have desktops that require big monitors. Nowadays people are using laptops or an All-In-One desktop that fits everything that makes up a computer, so no more towers, less wires and more Bluetooth capabilities. Knowing how fast technology is transforming we don’t really get to learn about the beginning of the internet and what was the intended used for it. Technology can be useful in a way that it connects people, across the world and can be used in uniting people for a change, a show called Rick and Morty mentions a promotion McDonald’s had with the Disney movie Mulan twenty years ago. The show made the promotion which was the limited edition “Sze
