Bolg Summary

My general idea is running a coupon collecting company. My target customers will be SU students who want to save money but do not have time to collect coupon information. I would like to help them and provide the most convenient service for them to have a good buget of school life. My company would like to hire some SU students to work together. Basically we will use our avaliable time to search coupon information and we will post the newest infomation on our websit.

With the knowlege of technology, all of our employees will work easily. Since our company is a data-based organization, we will definitly use database system to record our client information and our service cataloge. Networking is also a tool for us to sell and advertise our service to our clients. We will create the most convenient way for customers to get our service via networking. Nowadays, almost everyone has smartphone so that they can just purchase on our websit and use the coupon right away. They do not need to wait or have a paper copy of the coupon. We will design all kinds of QR codes for them to download from their smartphone. Also If our client needed, we can design a gift card with our coupon for them so that they can send it as a gift as well.

Our company's goal is tring our best to provide the worthy and convenient service for our clients. As a student myself, I know it is hard to have a good buget so that our company will help students to save certain amount of money. Hopefully we will success.

Week8-Networks

Network is a collection of computers and devices connected together via communications devices and transmission media. Using network is a efficient way for my company departments to share data and information. Since we are a local small company and most of employee will be students, we may won't have too much time for face-to-face meeting and communicating. We will also have a database of customer information on the network. Every authorized computer user can access our data and information stored on the network.

At the begining of company, we will create a websit for our company so that our customers can see clearly what we serve. With the knowlege of domain name, we can figure out how to create the domain name legally. In my company websit, we put our services and online shop for coupon as well. Customers can easilly buy and download the coupon they need at our websit. Our principle is providing the most convenient and high-quality service for our clients.

Network and domain name system are critical parts for building our company.

Week7-OS&Colors

The operation system is a set of programs containing instructions that work together to coordinate all the activities among computer hardware resources. Operation systerm (OS) provides a user interface that controls how you enter data and instructions and how information is displayed on the screen. Moreover OS manages all kinds of programs and memory, controls the network, administers security, and so on. It is the virtual part of computer.

Especially for information data based company like my coupon collecting company, OS is the basic tool for us to organize data information online and store our company's working process as well.

In order to design my company's logo by myself, I will have to know the digital colors and HSB model. HSB model is about hue, saturation, and brightness. According to the HSB model, i will know how to fix the logo picture with certain requirement. With the knowledge of hexadecimal color, I can try as many different colors as I want. Making company's logo by myself with these knowledge will be a economical way for my company.

Week5_input-output

Input and output are the essential parts of technology field. Those input devices and output devices are being parts of our normal life nowadays. We use keyboard to enter data and all kinds of information on computers and internet. Whenever we travel around, camera records the happiness and the beautiful view we see. On the web, we can view and print news, articles, and email messages. We can also download our favorite songs and video online. Input and output make our life more convenient and colorful.

For my coupon company, the basic equiments are all kinds of input and output devices. With input devices, I can record my clients information and business process on my computer. Specifically for my coupon company, I will provide my customers more convenient way to get their coupon. Instead of the paper coupon which may be easy to be forgot or lost, I will create every piece of coupon information as QR code. So my customers can just download the QR code from my company website and carry it to any store for shopping. This also will be part of my strategy to attract more customers

As we can see, the input and output technology help us to do so many things in our daily life. Everyone cannot live with out these two. My company will use them as the basic equipments to make our best to serve more custormers.

Week3_Spreadsheet Essentials

A spreadsheet (or spreadsheet program) is software that permits numerical data to be used and to perform automatic calculations on numbers contained in a table. The spreadsheet is a multi-use tool that works as well for secretarial activities that involve organising large quantities of data, as at the strategic and decisional level by creating graphical representation of synthesised information. In the real world, spreadsheets are widely used by all kinds of companies. They are recongnized as essential tools.

When I start to organize my coupon websit, spreadsheets are useful tools for me to organize and record my data information. For example, when i start my company, i have to do some research to find what kinds of coupon are needed for most of my customers. I will use the excel sheet to record those research data and use the function on excel sheet to make a graph in order to compare all kinds of coupon are needed by SU students. After that, i will have a clear decision to make.

Moreover, i will do my budget on excel sheet as well. The spreadsheet will be one of my essential tools to run my company.
