2/4/10 Class 2 Reaction

After class I didn't feel bored even if the material was a little dry. Even though it was homework, I found reading the chapter and then relating what I had just learned to the technology news reports and the case studies was interesting and helped me understand the concepts more quickly. For the career opportunities in IS, you said that after this course we'll be junior level database analysts and system analysts, I personally think that is pretty cool. I am definitely not a tech or computer savvy person, so knowing that I will basically be able to do those two jobs is amazing to me.

I know you said that you would explain later to us what a "cookie" was....but I'm too curious. Could you possible explain it briefly to me?

With our world becoming more high-tech, what's stopping everyone from only using online processing for transactions? It's obvious that batch processing is efficient, but not as effective as online processing...

    RE cookie: do a search on your C drive with the word "cookie" and see what comes up. More later....
