23rd October ; Thursday

Wasn't in school today due to some reason. Do feel that i miss out alot on Google and Google Scholar. Went to download lecture 3 PowerPoint slides and went through.

After viewing the PowerPoint slides, I went to try out the new features. In the past, the only feature I used in Google was only the normal search, image search and Google Earth. I didn't know and notice that I actually use the "More" search. It was shocking that it is even link to a blog. Recalling when I am doing my practical one, the only Internet resource I couldn't find was blog. Now that I finally know that there is a blog search in Google really excites me.

My first try in participating in the Discussion Forum wasn't a pleasant one. I had chosen SgForum as the website. I guess that the way i phrases my post was too short thus causing people to feel that I wanted to get my results as fast as possible. Hence I will try once more to post a new thread maybe in a new Forum during the weekends or this coming Wednesday.

Lastly, I feel that citation is very important. From the day we stepped into Temasek Poly we are told that plagiarism is a serious offence. Subsequently, we are taught of the ways to citate the source of our information. I finally realised that we must credit the people or organisation of their hardwork for gathering and putting up the information. As with proper citation, in the future when we want to find back the information, we can refer back to our bibliography.
