What More Would You Like To Learn?
There are two things that I would like to learn more. First of all, I really want to study how to develop a program. As I wrote in my second blog What I Want to Learn about Computers, I am very interested in programs and languages of programs. Moreover, when I learned how to make a webpage with notepad, I took pleasure in using some commands and making a certain program. Therefore, I want to study how to make a program more. Second, I also wish to learn how a computer works. In short, I want to know the mechanism of a computer. Thanks to Mr. Poza’s lesson, I understand a fundamental part of a computer’s mechanism. However, I desire to know the mechanism more deeply. I want to study physics and mathematics in American or British university, but I wish to learn how to make a program and a mechanism of a computer in the university more.

Computer Terms: Viral Video
Viral video means that a video clip which obtains extensive appeal from the Internet, especially email, IM messages, blogs, and web sites that have other media. The videos frequently have funny contents, and there are many varieties of viral videos in the Internet. For example, the range of the videos may contain from televised comedy sketches like Saturday Night Live’s Lazy Sunday to viral videos that are made by novices and not deliberately exhibited such as Star Wars Kid. Therefore, viral videos include commercial video clips that are produced by companies and entertaining videos made by amateurs; furthermore, there are viral videos which spend a lot of money to make. However, there are also the videos that we can understand obviously the videos are produced in low budgets. In addition, a lot of associations are trying to find out commercial tactics of the viral videos.

What Will Computers Be Like in the Future?
I think that computers will be smaller and more powerful than now in the future. First of all, I guess that computers will be as small as cellular phones. In fact, there is a cellular phone that can use Microsoft Word and some application programs; however, its shape does not seem to look like cellular phones, and the shape is tasteless. I think that the cellular phone is not worth buying, and I hope that a cellular phone or computer which looks like good is invented and sold. Second, I consider that the future computers will have unbelievable ability of processing. I believe that the computers are quantum computers. Quantum computers exist now, but they have not been perfect yet. The computers can calculate more efficiently than now computers by using parallel processing. However, they are so powerful that we may change now encryption technology. In addition, it is difficult to be put to practical use. In conclusion, I wish that smaller and more powerful computers appear.

Tell about Some Recent Computer News
I would like to state about some news about computers. First of all, on October 20, 2006, Japanese movie soft association reported that You Tube, which is a movie contribution and sharing web site in the U.S.A., deleted 29,549 files of Japanese production which was appeared in the web site without copyright's permission. Henceforth, Japanese copyrights intended to demand preventive measures against pipiracy from You Tube and ask the Internet users in Japan not to invade copyrights.
Second, according to a research which was done on April, 2006, it was shown that people who have used a mimic board in the Internet, regardless of having written on the board or not, represented 86.9 percent of all the Internet users in Japan. In addition, men, especially businessmen, tended to use mimic boards more than women.

Net Neutrality
Net Neutrality means an idea that Internet users should be guaranteed to use the Internet equally, and any companies ought not to be accepted to have an influence on users of the Internet and the access. For example, the following is the example of Net Neutrality's menace. “Two Pipes” are that a company provides the customers a service which permits the customers to be able to have a priority to access a particular content. That means it can be difficult for people who do not use the service to access the content. In addition, in the case of the Internet, there is a special characteristic that if a person or an association has a lot of the flow of data around the Internet (Internet traffic), it is extremely advantageous to the person or the association to act in the Internet. For this reason, some corporations and organization insist that Net Neutrality should be the law. Also, the argument whether the idea should be the law or not is continuing now.

Introduce 3 Good Web Sites
I would like to introduce three interesting web sites to you. First of all, Wolfram MathWorld is very interesting and useful. This web site has a lot of information about math, and you can study many field of the subject if you use the web site well. However, if you are not interested in math or do not like it, it is not interesting for you, but I think that it is worth for you to enter the web site even if you hate mathematics. Second, You Tube is also very funny. You may have already known the web site. It provides you with many movies without paying money. In addition, the movies have many kinds of movies, like animation, TV shows, and so on. Moreover, there area lot of movies that are created by amateurs, and some of the movies are very creative. Finally, I will state about Wikipedia. Probably, you know the web site, and it provides you with many kinds of knowledge not only academic subjects but also comics, novels, and so forth. For this reason, you can know many things, but Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia, so everyone can write article in the encyclopedia. Therefore, you should not trust the article completely. Also, the web site is displayed in not only English but also many languages, such as Japanese and French; thus, when you cannot understand an article in English, you can read it in Japanese if there is the Japanese type article. I show you three of my favorites web sites’ URL below. Please refer to them.

Computer Gifts I Would Buy for Friends & Family
I would like to buy a iMac for my parents and my younger brother because there are some reasons to think so. First, my parents and brother are not good at using computers. Of course, my family has computers, but my parents are poor at memorizing the manipulation. In addition, my younger brother uses his computer only for computer games and the Internet. For these reasons, they do not know how to utilize computers well, and I heard that a iMac is easy for every one to use it from some of my friends. Thus, I think that if I give a iMac to my parents and brother, they know how to use computers well. Second, I think that computers’ security is important. Many people say that Mac computers are safer than Windows computers because almost all of the viruses are made from Windows computer. For this reason, I think my parents and brother can use a iMac peacefully. In conclusion, if I have a chance to present a computer, I must choose a iMac as the present, in terms of the ease of use and the high level security.

Computer Terms "Social Engineering"
Social Engineering means that someone gets personal secret information to catch off the target carelessness. The purpose of the conduct is that the person gets the target's password by accessing the target's computer illegally, without damaging the computer itself. The following are three examples of means of Social Engineering. First example is that someone personates a systems administrator, and others, and the person pumps the password from the target. Second, someone stands behind the target, who is using a keyboard, and looks at the monitor or keyboard when the target inputs the password. Then the gazer knows the password of the target. Final example is that someone steals a look at a paper which is written the target's password. Also, now, these ways are used to know not only password but also the password of credit card of the target.

What I Want to Learn about Computers
I am interested in many fields of computers, especially program languages, Microsoft Excel, and computers' mechanism. First, I want to learn some program languages, like Java and C+ +, and I hope to make programs by using the languages. However, I think that it is very difficult to study the languages and use them well, so I will learn them very hard. Second, I would like to study Microsoft Excel. I am interested in mathematics and like it, so I want to calculate numerical formulas by using the software. I wish that I can utilize Microsoft Excel well and achieve my dream. Third, I want to know the mechanism of computers and how computers work. I have thought the mechanism for a long time, but I cannot understand it. In future, I hope that I comprehend the mechanism. Finally, I will study about computers hard, for satisfying my curiosity.

My History with Computers
My first encounter with computers was when my father bought a personal computer in 1996. Then I was only interested in games of the computers, such as chess, role-playing game, and so on. Also, I did not know about any function of the computer except the games. When I was in the fourth year in elementary school, I belonged to the computer club, but I only played computer games in the club. However, I created my homepage and presentation for the first time when I was in the second year in junior high school. I can not remember the homepage’s content and how to make the homepage now, but I can recall that the presentation’s content was The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, I enjoyed making animations for the presentations. The work was very interesting for me. When I entered a high school, I had to take computer class, and I learned about using the e-mail and the Internet from the class more than junior high school’s computer class. After graduation from my high school, I was admitted to NIC, and I had to hand typed documents as my homework in my teacher. For this reason, I knew how to use Microsoft Word. Now I want to use Microsoft Excel well and study to program.
