So, today we did a few different things in class. We began by looking at a few videos on youtube about the SOPA ordeal. All day today, wikipedia was, for lack of a better term, on a 'lock out'. It was interesting to see some of the interviews from both sides. SOPA wants to dictate whether or not things can be streamed over the internet. They are trying to get bit torrent web sites shut down because they are allowing people to download music for free. They are trying to shut down sites that stream videos and television shows online. I'm not going to lie, I watch movies online and not just on Netflix. I found some of my favorite songs and downloaded them through a bit torrent site. I think the whole, bit torrent / streaming regulation will bring internet numbers down. Anyway, after class today I ate some lunch with Jacob and Hanz and went back to the dorms to do some homework. A page on how the internet affects my life, an interesting topic. It really made me sit and think about why I use the internet and how much school work I do online. After that I grabbed some dinner with Hanz, Jacob and Brian and just hung out for a while. I watched Cowboys and Aliens for the first time. I just finished it and I must say, it's probably one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Everything was so predictable, and the plot was just kinda weird. Right now I'm chilling with Hanz watching G3: Live in Tokyo. Three of the greatest guitarists in the world get together and play a few songs of their own and then come together at the end and have a killer jam session. John Petrucci, Joe Satriani and Steve Vai, need I say more?
Peace and Love ya'll,
Yoder
