How to Use Movie Maker

This is a podcast about how easy it is to use Windows Movie Maker. It is relatively short and self-explanatory. Feel free to ask any questions. I posted it because I'm trying to determine if there's a problem with their RSS feed.

So our podcast was basically about our presentations that some groups presented on Wednesday, October 17th. Since our software group was using the Voki, we both decided to make everyone in class Voki characters just to make it entertaining. Hopefully, you'll all like it! (watch till the end because something disasterous happens....)

I found free wireless internet access in South Station in Boston when I was on my train ride to Rhode Island. Also on the bus ride into Boston, I found unsecured and some secured wireless signals from homes in the area. The name was for the signal was free public Wi-Fi access and it had a strong connection for the time that the train was in the station near the signal, and it continued to cut in and out as the train moved. (22DFC7CF3B181F3D)There was no WEP key required all I had to do was click to connect to the signal and it did it. I think that it was free because it is such a public area in which a lot of business is probably done, therefore it is essential for the area to have an internet connection. In this case it was ok to have an unsecure connection so many people can connect to the network for free and without hassle. Public places that provide WIFI can have an unsecured network because their purpose is to let many people to connect to it. I think they might provide free WIFI because they can attract more of a customer base and especially a customer base that is in the business community and most likely has a decent amount of money to spend on their product. It was not a private home it was a public connection. But I did pick up a wireless home connection and this family really should secure their network as to get a connection distorted by other people. Now that I have found free WIFI I can connect and surf the internet for free. I can check my mail, researched things and surf the web. This is all to the expense of someone else so it is useful because the internet is something almost essential in today’s society and I am getting to use it for free.

1) I went to Pizzeria Regina’s, in Boston in order to find free wireless.
2) The name of the SSID I connected to was “gnaritas” and its number was 001310A9D329.
3) WEP key was not required for connection this address.
4) The connection was probably free because it was a household connection, and the people probably didn’t know that they were giving away free wireless.
5) It ok to have unconnected when you or your business is trying to make it an attraction. When you offer it in order to attract people to your business.
6) When a business provides free wireless, they do so in order to attract more customers that enjoy the option of being able to have free wireless connection while they are there.
7) My findings suggest that this family probably didn’t know they were giving away free wireless. If they knew they probably would not leave it unprotected.
8) A useful thing that you would be able to do with free wireless, is having the luxury to be able find free wireless anywhere you go, so you never have to worry about being connected to the internet.
