Reaction to technology videos

Technology nowadays is everywhere. Videos like "Look up" of Gary Turk or "Your cell phone is not a part of your body, you can let it go", show the real impact technology has on society. It is sad how a gadget can separate us from important things like a family dinner, a reunion with friends or a class at school. We all have been in this situations.

Technology is used in everybody daily activities, and can be very useful. For example: people can communicate with their families that live in other countries. Laptops or cellphones are tools used in companies to have better results. Whats we have to learn is when to do al those things.

Cellphones, laptops, ipad, etc are good in our daily life but it is important to realize what is important at the moment. Leave your cellphone for a moment and enjoy your family, friends and life.

Useful apps for school

Technology is very useful these days, specially for school and education. Here are my favorite apps for school:

• Khan Academy: this is an app were you can see videos of I think every course like math, chemistry, physics or even economics and arts. The videos are short classes were somebody explains different topics in a very easy way. 
• OneNote:  is an app from Microsoft I use to take notes in classes. It is very useful because it has a lot of editing options so you can write and organize as you want. Another good thing about this app is that you can have different notebooks and it is free.
• iBooks: I use this app from Apple to save my PDFs files. You can save as much as your memory holds. Also you can export them to your computer or send it to other apps.
• Tiny scan: this app alouds you to scan you notebook notes and transform them into PDFs files.
• Calculator: it can make every math operation and also solve equations giving you the information that is missing.

The life in the city is very different if you compare it with life in the country. I have lived all my life in Mexico City so I know exactly how is the city lifestyle. Also when I can, I visit some towns near Mexico city so here is a Top 3 advantages and disadvantages of each one.
