Cassette tape review

    This Blorg will be a small reflection of my previous post regarding technology. As opposed to seeing how one type of technology can evolve over the years. We can talk about something that couldn't evolve. Cassette tapes are what couldn't keep up with the times. Thanks to the efforts of my class I was able to get a good picture of the rise and fall of this specific type of technology.

    This technology began around the time Video games were in their fetal stages in 1962 in Belgium. Known as the cassette tape, it was made as an attempt to develop a new standard for audio storage. This type of technology would allow easy access to recordable audio without being a member of the government. So as we can see from its early history it's extremely influential towards the technology we use and is a stepping stone for a type of technology that we couldn't imagine a world without.

    Its popularity peaked in the '80s and was mainstream in America starting back in the '60s for obvious reasons of it being the only technology of its time that did what it did. Sony even adapted the technology for portable music. However when the 2000s rolled around, and more compact and efficient storage and functionality were introduced in the form of CDs. The cassettes faded into history and were not needed by the general public. 

    It was interesting hearing the cassette's story and doing a little further research I come to a conclusion when comparing my subject matter to theirs for a final overview. When looking at the cassette it was revolutionary in terms of what it was able to do with recording sound once being impossible. With something so revolutionary and niche, it was bound to be improved upon through other methods. With my topic of Video games, it was a medium that was built on the back of what a computer was able to accomplish. So while video games were able to develop with their synergetic counterpart. The cassette tapes were phased out to allow for brand new technology that was better every way. Now, what once was the cassette tape is a function that any technological tool can accomplish today. This Includes
my Nintendo DS, now with new and improved infinitely more functions.

  All Pictures Involve original Archived Highschool Online Tomfoolery To Give Example of its Everyday use     The brand new era is upon humanity. That may very well be a stretch, but as far as I am concerned I have gone through 20% of what I will experience in life. I remember finishing off 5th grade in 2010 at my 10% point thinking that I had so much wisdom living through all 5 years of school. So now I find it funny that I am currently in a similar mindset as the decade is finishing again. Now, this blog isn't going to be about me, it's about humanity and how it's been shaped over the past recent decades. I think the key to really understanding the changes in humanity is through the way I experience the most humanity. That would be through myself and through the community that is our society how I perceive it.      Anyone who is living as an active member of our communities and society will know that we have developed so much of our recent culture by way of a major planet

The Diffusion Theory:Marvel Cinematic Universe Owned by disney

     Before I began learning and comprehending the theory that you have put on display I took note of the word diffusion. It's the most important aspect of the theory especially since it's named after it. The place I hear and know that word from my own experience is in my school Biology classes. Luckily I took it just last school year so it's fresh in my mind mostly. Anyway, I came to the early conclusion this theory involves a type of integration. After further exploring the theory I came to realize that our professor wants this theory applied on a large scale. Whether it be country or community scale, this is in regard to how something, and it could really be anything, diffuses into a culture. Our culture is the most important to examine so lets apply something in our age that Diffuses right into being an important aspect of our culture The graph that displays how something integrates          I'm using the Marvel cinematic Universe as my example.
