EOTO Com Tech Timeline: Blog 7 (Do one from a presentation you liked)

 Instagram, everyone loves it.


Instagram is a photo-sharing app that was created in 2010. The co-founders of Instagram sold it to Facebook (FB) in 2012 for one billion dollars It allows individuals the ability to upload photos and videos with tools they can use to edit, add captions, and hashtags. Instagram is a great app because it gives us the ability to share media with friends and family, interact with others by liking and sharing photos. It also gives us the resources to view trending content and meet new people. People like Instagram because it is made to stay connected to others and create new connections. For younger kids, Instagram is one of the resources to stay on trend and become popular in society. People from all walks of life use Instagram and the ability to personalize it within your preference. There are many pros and cons to Instagram. The pros are Instagram’s ability to be neat and organized within your profile. It also is very great with keeping up with upgrades and the latest technology, so it never becomes outdated. The cons are the addiction that people have to the app and the validation to be popular. This causes many problems with people creating a fake persona and not being real. I love Instagram because it gives me the ability to share my life with others along with having a neat and organized profile. I am allowed to have bright colors, personalized profile pictures, profile descriptions, and more! It’s also a very simple platform. There’s not as much post clutter as Facebook and the ability to browse through hashtags and post is easily accessible. Overall, I believe Instagram is the #1 social media app because of its clear view, communication, and simplicity. I also think that with time you can grow a following that can make you an influencer which comes with many perks. I also enjoy that you can use other editing apps to create boomerangs, collages, and presets (filters) that can make your feed look more appealing. Here is a picture of my Instagram. I just googled my username and it popped up. I do have a private account.

 The Supreme Court The Supreme Court is apart of the judicial branch. As you can probably tell since it does Supreme, they are the highest federal court for our nation. They make sure that laws are being practiced and that everything that goes on in court cases and new laws is constitutional. They also have the power to check the other two branches to make sure they aren't going overboard. The Supreme Court has 9 justices, who are the people that help make decisions and make sure the other two branches in the government are being constitutional when making laws or when people want to know if something is within their rights or not. The Beginning  While the Supreme Court was established in the constitution it wasn't of any use until 1803 when Marbury v. Madison came into play It is one of the most known cases and is seen has the case that really made the Judicial branch have power. Later on, they decided that there should be 9 justices and they have not changed that number ever...

My 5 top sources for news and information  When I was looking over my top 5 news sources from last semester, I thought my sources wouldn't change but it turns out I use many different outlets to receive my news. I found that so interesting because that was last semester, it goes to show that a lot can change in a course of 6 months. CNN  While CNN leans it's biased towards a liberal standpoint, when I need to see what's going on they are the ones that usually pop on. When I search for anything news-related, they are also the ones at the top of my search list. Something that also makes me automatically look at them for news is the fact that they also have a Spanish channel. I would say they are reliable but would also suggest looking at other news sources just so it isn't as biased and you get to see the whole picture. https://www.cnn.com The Washington Post When I need to look at anything that relates to the president or congress, I always go see what "The Washingt...
