Hello world!

This is my very first blog on this site and I'm super excited to learn and experience how to use this. First off, I am a student currently in college and practicing digital literacy to its full potential. As I am writing this, this is currently an assignment. It's honestly already fun to do! It isn't something that feels boring or something you want to get over with. No, I think it's cool to go to new sites I have never heard of and doing assignments that can be shared to the world and must be completed in different kinds of sites. I think that's pretty cool! It's such a good way test your skills. For me, I'm testing and regaining my grammars skills. Honestly, when typing things on the internet, you don't really have someone judging your grammar so why even bother, I mean acronyms exist LOL! The internet isn't judging your grammar so you start typing nonsense that sometimes you completely forget to actually type properly! That is currently me.

So what college class am I currently taking? The class I'm taking is called IS 101. It's basically digital literacy and a class that can teach you to use Windows software to their full potential. What Windows software you must be asking? Well glad you ask! Windows software such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint are the apps you'll will be learning to use to its full potential! And I got to say, I already learned a lot from this class. At first, I thought it will a simple class but I got to be honest, it's a hassle especially when you have a busy life. It's nothing crazy, it's more of keeping up with it. I mean isn't that how college is? Just keep up with your assignments? Yes and no, life doesn't stop so having to keep up with assignments while having other things existing in your life that must be done and it can be challenging. But you know what makes it all the stress go away? Having a Professor that actually cares. It's really astonishing how you can be behind or ahead and the professor will be there to guide you. Not only that even after classes, My Professor even sacrifice his hours to help us in our assignments. My impressions of this class isn't about IS 101, I think it's pretty simple but having a professor that actually cares of helping you succeed and sacrifice his hours to help you is something I don't see a lot now in days and that's what makes the class extremely fun.

I'm going to explain a lesson I learned in IS 101 which is Chapter 2.1.5 call Ports and Connecters. This was very crucial in my opinion especially when working with cables in Wi-Fi networking or someone that will connect the Wi-Fi into new homes. Knowing certain cable types, I think are something that must be known since we use these cables almost anything we own such as phones, portable computers, laptops, motherboards, and TVs. HDMI are use when connecting HD quality now in days like TVs , PCs. Older TVs use cables called RCA you know those yellow, red and white cables? Yes those! Theses cables are basically ancient now but you never know you might encounter one of these ancient technologies that need these RCA cables. Now you know what you are looking for and what they are called. For phones, certain companies such as Apple and Android use different types of cables. I always wonder why we have these types of cables which are called type A and C. And I ask myself why do we have so many different ones?

Now as of 2026 the year I'm currently typing this blog, now I know why we do! Majority technologies use type C then A why? Type C is actually the current cable used in today's technology. Think of it as a the better version of Type A. Type A is actually a old cable used before 2010, Its basically 1.0 of type C and Type C is the 2.0. We use Type A to this day because its cheaper and many people around the world still be using or wanting to connect their old devices with Type A cables. Don't you think its fascinating that even cables have history?

Now imagine we go to 2065 or more into the future and ask ourselves would we still be using these cables or newer ones and if so would they be hard to find!? I think it's cool that even technology can show their ages throughout time. I can already imagine how newer generations will be so curious in older technology we have and how it works or even surprised how its used!! I mean as someone that seen 1990's tech, it's insane how much has improved and the speed technology is now. I can't imagine how it will be like in 2065. So knowing cables are very crucial. Some devices can be exclusive to certain cables or knowing what type of cables throughout history can be handy in the future. Especially if one day the world stop using certain types of cables and stop producing these cables. Someday you might to find these yet don't know what they are called! But if you do know them it can be easier for you. Who knows what cables will be stop producing. As of now, time will tell so know your cables you use cause maybe someday we will stop using them in the future. And you might have to find these in thrift stores or something in the future.

So that's a sneak peek I am learning in IS 101. Who knows maybe I'll update more along the way? Thank you for reading who ever sees this! It was very fun to create this blog and sharing to the world! Like I said, I'm trying to regain my grammar skills and I hope you enjoy what I wrote, it wasn't just an assignment to do but something that's feel nice to create. It felt like a journal I'm writing and sharing it to the world. Since you made it to the end I hope you enjoy the blog theme I tried to make fit for the blog and a picture for your mind of what I'm going through in this course! Thank you for reading my first ever blog on blogger! Perhaps a Part 2? Time will tell!
