PLN 8

In David Warlick’s, Graphic Display of Web Lists… what matters to him is ease. Sense the invention of the internet, access to almost anything is extremely easy. You can find almost anything at any time. David shares the advice of using a new search engine called SearchMe. It works like Google but displays images of the web pages in a Mac file style, which is helpful when you are looking for based on what it looks like. When the world can see what someone else is doing across the world, it was unthinkable forty years ago. Now I can talk to my friend Will (who lives in California) like he was two miles away by the click of a button; by using the internet or cell phones. I love the accessibility of contacting my friends from so far away. David show us the vital importance of conversation with old friends, colleges, and distant family.
