Internet infrastructure- This article was very interesting, I never really knew the specifics of how webpages worked. I also liked the fact that it was easy to understand the article. All of the examples were very helpful in order to understand the topics that were presented in the article.
Dismantling Integrated Library Systems-I’m not sure if I fully understand this article. It almost felt like I cam into the middle of something instead of starting from the beginning. I think it may have been the fact that they used a lot of jargon and expected the reader to be very familiar with these systems, but I was rather confused.
Video- A lot of people use Google! I didn’t realize how many until they showed it visually with the globe. The whole video showed me how little I actually knew about Google overall. For instance I didn’t realize that they were involved in charitable works, though I would be interested in what the Google Foundation does, they never really said. I have also never heard of Orkut, but the time this was filmed was around when Facebook was coming out so I wonder if it just couldn’t compete. I had also never heard of Google news, however, I’m not a big follower of the news. In general Google seems to have a lot of different projects going and it seems like it would be a cool company to work for.

Yeah,I'd never heard of OrKut either. I liked that the people within the company were able to work on separate projects about their own interests. That was really cool. It seemed like a fun company to work for.
