Viruses vary from what they can do for ex from an anoying message to deleting your hardive
Viruses can be attched to a program or eveb replace the program
You can get them in an email attachment or in an insttant message.
They are ussually disguised as funny photos or greeting cards.
Viruses are not trojan horses
The diffrence is the trojan horse doesn't replicate itslef like the virus does
Its called a virus because its spreads very fast like the virus and duplicate also like the virus
Trojans can also be addtions of the virus that don't replicate
Whe you download a virus a adware or spyware could come with it

This connects to my life because I'm always on the computer wether it facebook or school stuff. Now I know that I need to check to mkae sure the files i downoad don't have a virus. Also I should buy an anti virus software incase I do get a virus.

Who created the virus.

Google Day #3

See what type of apps sell the most.

Find a site that lets you build that kind of app.

Make the app.

http://www.businessinsider.com/best-selling-iphone-apps-2010-9?op=1 It says in this site that most apps are games but the problem of creating a game is really hard and needs a lot of coding so I thought the other there were sports or medika type apps. SO why no try

https://www.capriza.com/ This site lets you take anything from any site and put it in your phone so if you're doing lets say an app of football player you can just copy paste it into your app.

I just made my app and U used many articles regarding the US presidential election. I chose articles from CNN and BBC and FOX. This was a great way of learning how to do apps but I would like an app that does moe than just copy paste articles into your app.

Something new i want to learn next class is: Does android make you pay to put your app on their app store.

Google Day 2

Goals:
See how to advertise
What makes an app good
How to get an app on app store


http://mashable.com/2012/01/20/advertise-app/
here ist says how to advertise. It consists of many elements like creating buzz, telling people about it's releases date and maybe putting a lower price for the app. Also putting your App name out there wether it paid advertisement in other apps or just telling your normal consumers that there is going to be an app.

http://seattleapplab.com/blog/?p=64
it says here that the most important thing is content if you have great content you should start to get some people to like or start using the app. Also to make regular app updates because the app user can see that you care about

http://mobile.smashingmagazine.com/2009/08/11/how-to-create-your-first-iphone-application/

It says here that it cost 99 dollars a year to have a developers license and 5 dollars for every x code update. It isn't as easy as it sounds. Then you give the app to apple and hope it gets approved.
These are the 5 steps so that it gets approved
1. Make sure it works
2.Leave some complicated stuff out then add them later in an update
3. Follow the rules no matter how dumb they seem.
4. Try to make the app inoffensive apple canceled an app because it had women with small bikinis
5. Be orginal app store said they don't need more fart apps be creative unless it might be rejected



I learned that apple isn't as great as it sound to developers. Also that if your willing to pay 99 dollars dor developers license go ahead and use paid advertising. Make your app creative and follow the 5 guilde of smahingmagazie.
