In recent lectures, I have learned about the lack of privacy that exists over the internet. I had previous knowledge of the dangers of putting information out on the internet. One of the benefits of my website, in my opinion, is that it does not require the user to put any personal information onto our site, such as address, personal information, or credit card information. It is simply a variation of social networking in which users can coordinate their own class schedules with those of peers.
Social networking sites like Facebook require some personal information for you to enjoy the full effect of their resources. You won't be doing much on Facebook if you have no pictures of yourself and are not networking with other people based on where you're from and common interests you may share with others. The only material a user needs to provide with my entrepreneurial idea is their schedules. No personal information that could later come back to haunt anyone is needed.
Another topic covered last week in lectures was spreadsheets and the use of Microsoft Excel. Spreadsheets would likely play a large role in the success of my website. That is what would probably be used to format all the schedules, seeing as it is the most effective way to lay out dates and times in an organized fashion. Although my website may not be utilizing all the features Excel or other spreadsheet applications have to offer, it is by far the most organized way to put all data together.
